Yeah, I have heard the srt-4 heads do flow better and the neon's have better cams. I figure the initial cost of a neon head is a lot less, plus you can upgrade it by getting it ported since it is off...
I saw this hybrid combo. How different is it from the neon 95-99 DOHC? Does it have any benefits over the neon head? What is easier to work with the neon head or the 03-05 srt-4 head?
I have seen the srt-4 engine swaps into l-body engines. What would be the better option, getting a lotus 16 valve head or the 2.4L? It seems fitting the 2.4 into the l-body would be a pia. I have a...
Get the carpet? How did everything turn out?
Yes, I have a Paypal account. I am getting another carpet this week, so I will use that box to send you the carpet parcel post. You need to e-mail me th necessary shipping info, of course.
Sent the e-mail. Let me know if there are any problems.
$75.00. $50.00 for carpet + $25.00 for shipping. I am sorry about the pictures. For some reason, if I try to send the pictures, it is adding in obscure pictures from the internet. I created a...
It says your from Houston, I am in Connecticut. If I send this parcel post, it will cost about $25.00. Honestly, I just want to get rid of the carpet - I have no place to put it, but I will not let...
That is the part that sucked. I ordered it at stock interiors and the color that arrived was much lighter than it looked on the internet, so I had to send it back. They are sending me samples which I...
Very good condition, front and back. Dark Grey. No odor. Non-smoker. Bought new carpet, but this one is in very good condition. I have pictures and I have never posted pictures here, but if I can e...
I could be wrong (I usually am), but driving the other day the car would sputter under acceleration. If I kept pressing the throttle, it would accelerate fine, but would have brief seconds where the...
After months in my driveway and half the engine in pieces, I started the car today. Ran o.k. Noticed two coolant leaks (turbo feed and return line). Will have to hit those tomorrow. Engine sounded...
You are almost better off restoring most of the external parts because multiple parts are liable to break. The following broke on my teardown:
Exhaust manifold studs - several of them and I had...
I have an 87 GLHS and piecing together the engine. The left side (when standing in front of the car) engine mount bracket slipped off the two alignment holes. The main problem is the top bolt is mia....
What is the trouble with the oil return line? Two bolts. Difficult if you are working on it while it is in the car. Spay the hell out of them with pb blaster. A little heat always helps as well. Good...
I used an 8mm 12pt to get the crank pulley bolts off. They were in there really good, but I had no problem. That was one of the easier trials I am going through with my car. One big giant pia working...
Anyone know a good site for head, intake, exhaust manifold, etc.?
when I purchased a crankcase gasket and vavle cover gaskets, they included the cork gaskets for the long sections. The valve cover and crankcase only had RTV on the long sections. Is the cork gasket...
VictorResearch.com is their website. Their address is 286 Governor Street, East Hartford, CT.
The site looks good with pictures and it is written they powdercoat. Well, they did not even have a gun...
Thanks for the information. To the best of my knowledge, these are the factory bolts. I will buy the fel pro's since they are not too bad price wise and the engine is stock anyway. I did notice some...
Is it allright if I still use the same headbolts to re-connect back to the block? I hear different stories. How much lubricant should be put on the bolt?
What is the best (and safest) way to clean up the block from the head gasket crud?
You are probably right, but what I want to know is how everything turned out. Did water in the oil pan/engine have long lasting effects? I am going to yank the head anyway to get the #$*/@ exhaust...
What happened?
