Default 2.4 2.0 head question.

ok so my cars at the garage getting the head gasket done but if the head is warped i wont have enough money to get it repaired so ill get a new one from the junkyard should i get a 2.4 head and swap the 2.0 cams in it or just get a 2.0 head and if i were to go with a 2.4 head would it make any more power then the 2.0?

The 2.0L head found on a 95-99 neon/stratus have different coolant and/or oil passages than the 2.4L stratus/PT head. The exhaust side the the 2.0L head is larger that the 2.4L head. The 2.4L has a better valve train, and that is about it. Same bolt pattern of course.
