im a little new to this forum...i've been reading alot of ur posts and i have'nt seen any of the topics tht i was interested in....i had a 98 neon sport and now recently i own an 05 sxt..wht im looking for is can u swap a dohc head from a first gen neon to the 2nd gen sohc...just something im tryin to look into and do something diff.... cause we all kno how honda motors can match up with most of the blocks...but anyway, if there is anyone out there with some info on this...please feel free to let me kno thnx

 

The only difference I'm aware off is that you would either need to replace the pistons or cut reliefs in them for the other two valves. otherwise the head would bolt up.

 

save your selve the head ache just put a mugnum(r/t) head on there it is derect bolt on

 

so you can take a the r/t head and it will bolt right on the to a 03 se? if so how much hp do you get from that?

 

if you get the head that is complete and has a cam and every thing it should 15-20 horsies that is my geustemate.
r/t cam = crane 12
r/t head = race ported normal soch head
and you get way better valve springs

 

how much and where could you get an r/t head. I have a 04 sxt with CAI. more to come by summer

 

the best way is too buy it used but they are kinda hard too come by you can try some junk yards, ebay, other neon sites

 

Good luck on that. It'll be especially hard to find a 2nd Gen RT at the junk yard.

 

r/t in second gens are so rare. I've only seen 1 in my city and it was a month after I just got mine. It flew by me and I was impressed. So finding one in a junk yard would be super hard if there hard to find on the street. But isn't any companies that sell r/t head, what about mopar or dodge?

 

You can order one through Mopar but its gonna be high as ****. First the R/T is rare, and any performance parts by mopar are rareer.
