Authority goes to everybody's head obviously, Your part of the reason I've been extrapissed on this forum, you and your comments talkin **** about me when I've always liked you and defended you to people who laughed at your Neon on Youtube and Neons. org, guess loyalty means **** to you.

The SOHC has 140+, wheel Hp. [/blockquote]

how does a sohc have stock 140+ hp???? when numbers to the crank r 132 stock???

If the DOHC has 150hp and has only 2 wheel horsepower more than a SOHC then obviously the DOHC is overrrated or the SOHC is underrated. The SOHC is rated at 132hp yes, the SRT-4 is rated at 215 at the crankbut people somehow get 227hp out of the wheels.

The 426 Hemi is rated at 425hp, They did that on a Dyno thatwas only ratedtohandle 400hp, real world dyno's show 560hp at the crank on the Hemi.

Chrysler has a history of underrating their engines for insurrance and whatever their specific needs are at the time.

so if you have a rod knock you can easyly check to see if its a wrist pin or rod know or nothing! what i do is start teh car let it warm up for a min or 2 and pull each spark plug wire off 1 at a time then plug it back in and go to the next what you want to do is listen to the knock when you pull the wire if it gets louder is most likly a wrist pin knock, if you pull it and it gets quiter(sometimes it only gets quite for a little and gets loud) its most likely a rod knock. the reasons for thhis is when it combusts in the clyinder and fires it pushs the space between the crand and rod so when you pull the wire, the sound gets quite bewcause theres no forces being exerted on the piston,there for its a rod knock, now wrist pin when you take the wire off and its not firing the pin and piston are no longer having the firing force pushed agiasnt the piston there for when the wire is pull it gets louder because it not pusing agasint the bronze bushing it tapping. i hope that helps. It always worked for me and every engine i rebuilt i was always right with that test. if nothing happens you could have a colapsed hydralic roller rocker and every tiem the valve returns it bangs angest the seat and hits the rocker and there for making that annoying tap. when you do the test you can use a long screwdriver to "listen" to the engine. and when you check to see if its a rod know listen to the car runing by the oil pan and rev it if the sound is realy lound at the bottom of the engine is mosy likly a rod knock. and if its you main bearings for the crank usaully the oil seals are leaking like crazy and you have crank walk withc is bad in and out play and pissobly up and down play(realy bad) people get crank walk from using to agresive clutch in there cars like a 6 puck race clutch, the pedal effort from that clutch is insane, you can admagine what presure you pushing on the crank when you push the pedal in. so if yoiu dont got a lot a power theres no need for 6 puck thats for major hp cars multi disk is the best way to go best sliping fetures, and the best for the crank bearings to avoid crank walk

thank yuo very much ill check that out this weekend its not really a big priority cuz the new engine will be here soon.. but thanks for the info..


wow seems like every post turns out to be a war

yes street racing is illigal but whats the point of haveing a moded DD.. so if you have a modded neon then why are you driving it everyday and how could you resist racing someone when you know what your car is capable of.. i havent looked at any pics of spawnes car or heard of him talking about performance.. but i really dont understand haveing a modified DD and not racing it ??
