hey venge, what would be the best motor to drop in my venger for speed and hp? i want to convert it to a manual, and put a turbo on, but i also want to do many other things, what is the best engine, the 2.0 and in this case which one?, or the 3.0?

 

I didn't want to burst beasty's bubble but NO ONE has transplanted the 3.0 AND manual...
If you want a manual the 2.0 or the GSX swap are the best bets

 

see, thats what i heard, but i wasnt compleatly sure, but then what would be the best engine then? i know there are different 2.0s that will fit this car, whats the best one, and what cars have it? whats the diff between the gsx and the 2.0

 

not to sound like a dick either venge anything is possible with a few modifications, if u can take a stock dodge avenger and make it rear wheel drive then i can drop in a manual 3.0 into my car. but i never said it would match right up i know theres going to be some fabrication to do in order for this to work........ all i wanted to know was the pistons since i was having trouble finding some. and incase i misunderstood what you said the engine im dropping in is a stock engine that came with the manual option

 

I fully understand as mentioned NO ONE has successfully done it ...(I know of 6 attempts helped with 2)
Get the ENTIRE electrical system,harnesses and ECU TCMs and ALL sensors from the donor cars ...As well as clutch slave cylinders...

 

yeah i got all that already i got in a wrecked eclipse that was hit in the rear. i pulled the engine out and i wanted to upgrade the cams, crankshaft, pistons, etc.etc. before i even think about ripping my engine out of the venge. i found cams and crankshaft but i couldnt find those pistons and i sent the heads out to be ported and polished. and also thinking about getting the block bored and stroked but im not sure if i wanna do that and if so ima half to send it out because there is no way in hell im going to want to do that.........
