The PT clutch is stronger than the OEM neon clutch and holds more power.

Got ya thanks will do so... any idea who sells aftermarket hoods other than carbon fiber... or am I just gonna have to add a scoop to a factory bubble?
Id like one like a vader that isnt carbon. not too worried about the weight and I preffer to paint the hood, Never cared for the carbon fiber look.. would be happy for just a fiberglass hood.
Thanks for the info...

nothing just dont want to pay that kind of money for a carbon fiber hood if Im just gonna cover it up....
Another change in plans... I just found out that the engine I was gonna buy has 2 bell housing bolt holes busted on it... (He litterally got run over by a semi. and cracked the trans in 2 and broke the housing holes... and they are next to one another...) next option is to either locate the 2.4 or rebuild the Sohc into the dohc meaning an engine rebuild kit and a head, intake, covers, etc. etc... I sure would like to find a 2.4. What about the comp> do I need a 2.4 or a 2.0Dohc, what about the exhaust header (for the turbos)


I appreciate the help on this I know Im taking alot of your time just trying to weigh my options and dont want to jump into something with only half the info...
Thanks for you time...

Nemo is a guy who made the mounts and ported/polished heads, but is no longer n business. You can get a 2.4 mount adapter from Modern Performance now.
