How big of a problem would i have if i took a motor out of a wrecked srt4 and wanted to put it in my 2000 neon

i want to know about what i would have to change for wiring and mounts, pretty much if it will be worth the task.How big of a problem would i have if i took a motor out of a wrecked srt4 and wanted to put it in my 2000 neon
you're looking at a lot of work. i own an 05 srt-4 and the engine compartment isn't even configured like a stock neon. all the drive train mounts are different, the wiring is completely different,the cooling system mounts differently to make room for the intercooler, plus a ton of other differences. if you can get the whole front end(framerails and all) plus the complete exhaust system(manifold to tips) that would help. oh, the intake manifold is cast so it's one piece for all the turbo mounting/ports/ect... so you must have that. anything is possible, with the right amount of cash and know how(or who)and that srt setup bone stock is sick as hell. but if you're on a budget, you might be better off going the intake/chip exhaust route. just make sure you upgrade the cat, thats where most of your power is lost on the backside. but if you have time(a lot) and the extra bucks, it can be done just dont plan on doing it over a 3 day weekend. on a side note, finding a salvage 2000-05 neon to build a drag car out of is an option. those 2.4l have been known to push 350 h.p. and 400lbs. torque with the stage 3 kit from mopar and a little tuning. also had a friend in vegas put a subaru sti in a sand rail. just some optionsHow big of a problem would i have if i took a motor out of a wrecked srt4 and wanted to put it in my 2000 neon
Rumor has it................



For to even be fisable, you need pretty much everthing from a SRT-4, like the cradle, trany, CV-shafts. You'd be looking at a SRT-4 front end pretty much. In a nutshell, sounds like it'd be easier to just to buy a SRT-4.How big of a problem would i have if i took a motor out of a wrecked srt4 and wanted to put it in my 2000 neon
the only way it would really be possible to do this is have a wrecked srt setting beside of this one,then you could swap everything out on them,but honestly its more work than the car is going to be worth,you,d be better off getting a nice srt ,and being done with it,its a lot of work,you could do it with a good parts car,but there may be things you would still have to buy ,no one i know has ever done it before,good luck with it.How big of a problem would i have if i took a motor out of a wrecked srt4 and wanted to put it in my 2000 neon
im sorry doing anything with a neon except driving it to the salvage yard makes no sense.
