I really don't know if they are the same, but isn't the eclipse engine the reverse of the Neon? Isn't the exhaust and intakes reversed putting the intake manifold on an eclipse on the firewall side of the car?

Eclipse parts don't work on the neon engine. The head is a different design. Sorry it won't bolt up.

Did you bolt it up, hook it up and run the engine with them?
