LWP manifold, need coolant neck??

[Nemesismachine]

Does anyone have one or need one? I cannot find the coolant neck for the one Wallace gave me, since this was a last ditch effort to save a f*cked up deal from Andre. Im so done looking at this POS. Would Brian's intake be a better option, since he can still be contacted?

Which engine is this intake for?

and is it something somebody could reproduce without changing the whole intake manifold or making your head explode?

Like I asked over on TD, I assume you are referring to the 2.4 SRT manifold he sold, which didnt have a coolant neck built in.

Not the 2.4. I have never owned a 2.4. This is for the 2.2 hybrid

Mike may be my savior, going to pick up a chevy coolant neck tomorrow to test.

Yeah it sorta looks like a standard flange and bolt spacing, like even a 3.0 neck might fit. Is the hybrid intake basically the same but flipped TB location and coolant difference? My LWP intake for a 2.4 head is TB on the cam gear side and does not have any coverage for the head outlet :(

Its for the 2.0L neon head, I'm just putting it on a hybrid engine (or was). Drain holes in the block are plugged and decked, head has drain holes and fittings, and I have most of the cam dizzy parts.

No luck, the Chevy is 3.25" bolt to bolt oc, this is 2.265" oc. Can someone measure a fill neck for a 2.4 or anything laying around?

[Ondonti]

3.0 neck holes are too far apart.

Try having a parts store show you all their gaskets and then you could junkyard check for those that have the right bolt center.

Im gonna bring this stupid thing with me to the JY and go shopping. worst case I can throw it on the scale for scrap prices.

My 2.0 neon intake is a bout 2.5". SRT-4 is over 3".

I would hope you wouldn't scrap this thing over something as small as a neck, can you get another neck turn it 90 degrees and redrill for the new pattern? im sure a pt cruiser neck could fit? although I hate those leaky plastic things... im also trying to build a hybrid, I think im going with the caravan intake.

Found one, came off a 1998 DOHC neon.
