well i won the heat race, started 3rd in the A, front 2 guys were side by side, i was tryin to work around them, made it about5 laps and it blew up. the guy behind me was nosin up beside me , he ended up 2nd.
was a $500 to win 35 lap,
at least i started.
im still a little pissed that it let go like that but oh well. **** happens.
im thinkin the 2.4 i need is a VIN "X" 2001???
i can get them easy, just not sure if thats the right motor.

Is this the info you are looking for?

What 2.4 do I use? Where do I get it?
You can use a 2.4 motor from any of the following; 1995 to 2000 Stratus/Breeze/Cirrus, 1996-2000 Caravan/Voyager, 2001 up PT Cruiser/Stratus/Sebring. Realize that all the common install kits available utilize the right side engine motor bracket from a 95 to 2000 Stratus/Breeze/Cirrus. All 2001 up 2.4 motors have a lightly different head port and manifold mounting configuration so you have to modify your intake and exhaust manifolds to use that motor. That does include the PT Cruiser. 2001 up also have a different oiling system and different oil filter locations. In Late 1996 the timing belt tensioner was changed so the later tensioner is preferred. Get your motor from a local wrecking yard.

Wow, someone actually read the 1st Gen FAQ's

I thought your engine had to be stock?

It will be stock, just not for the neon, hence the "no turbo"

americans are smart and don't stamp the engine code B18 in a D16 car on the side of their motors...
