Looking for any help I can get in answering this question as well as finding a full swap engine/trany at reasonable price. Also, looking for sponsorship from Mopar but cannot find any contact info to ask them! Could use any contacts you may have! Thanks...

 

give me $10,000 and i can make it happen

 

I'll do it for $5k...

I can provide the link to an SRT-4 swap into a 1st gen - no charge. 2nd gen wouldn't be that much different. Been done in a 2nd gen, but not many people past as much detail as Jake did...

Mopar's site used to have contingency information posted. Don't count on a full sponsorship though.

Best of luck!

 

yea its basically a straight bolt up swap...i think

 

You would be correct...it is much more difficult to swap the 2.4 into the 1st gen than 2nd gen...since the SRT is a 2nd gen with a better motor.
Your looking at 3k for the entire engine, tranny, computer, etc...then another 1k for odds and ends and if you have someone install it for you thats another grand at least.

So your looking at the 4-6k range total.

 

fi anyone can find me a engine tranny comp (preferably a whole crashed car) let me know

 

Find your own damn motor and tranny ya lazy bastard! Lol... but i'll keep a look out...i usually see a few on Ebay and the junkyard here in Toledo every month.

For the whole crashed car your looking at 5-6k just FYI.

 

now will the motor bolt up to the atx in the 03, and i dont want a mtx

 

You would have to buy a PT cruiser auto transmission, and then you would have to do some modding to make sure the shifter assembly and everything else would fit properly.

 

ouch lol ive been looking too but no luck lol
