Thread: 97 neon dohc head?

    97 neon dohc head?

    My 97 neon dohc is knocking pretty bad. Is the head worth keeping for a potential hybrid build?

    What other engine parts should I save before junking it?

    if its the short runner intake the water box actually hits the timing belt on a hybrid swap. Trust me on this.. I put a short runner on my hybrid cause I didnt like the long runner hitting the oil filter and it wouldnt bolt up fully because of the timing belt interference.

    cut the t-stat housing off and weld shut and try the stratus t-stat housing or run cooling on driver side
