Default RE: Swap Update!

Hmm, well thats not looking so good on my part at the moment.. I just took a look at the FSM for the SRT-4, and the FSM includes the 2.0L cars too... Well, the 2.4L have the T850, and any other model has the T350 w/ hydralic clutch... Im really starting to this this wont work, but its worth a try.. I have heard also that the SRT-4 clutch will not swap into the 1st gens, which means the bellhousings are probably completely different, or its just the flywheel... I will bother that road when I come to it though.. I want to get this interior done today... later!

You heard wrong then. It will work with some modifying...
ORIGINAL: JeffB#2
SRT[/b]-4 clutch[/b] modified to work with a "Neon" and PT Cruiser NVG-T350 5-speed, all years 3.55 and 3.94 gear ratios. This would be a low-buck "upgrade" beyond a PT Cruiser clutch[/b] for boosted and nitrous cars. You must use an SRT[/b]-4 throwout bearing, the "Neon"/"PT" bearing is a different design and will not work well with the SRT[/b]-4 pressure plate finger design. Will work in hydraulic or cable actuated cars. SRT[/b]-4s are making in the 300WHP area and nearly 400WTQ on stock clutches all over the country. An SRT[/b]-4 pressure plate and disc will not work on a "Neon"/"PT" flywheel, the friction area is too small on the flywheel and the pads where the SRT[/b]-4 pressure plate would bolt on are in the way, are spaced wrong and the bolt/rivet holes are in the wrong location

Update: Interior is finished! Hopefully I got everything wired up correctly and didnt forget anything! I just need to put the CD player in, make another stop at the yard and get a dash peice.. and thats about it... I got the carpet in, and it took about 2 hours to do just that! I dont suggest recarpeting your car unless its absolutely necissary! Once again, once I get the cable, I'll have a butt ton of picture for ya'll.. Prolly gonna get it to the body shop this week, horray!
