Default 3.8 V6 in an Srt4? Maybe even RWD conversion

How hard would it be to stick a 3.8 V6 into a Srt4 and could it be converted to RWD? Does the 3.8's clutch face the rear end?

3.8 from what? Well whatever it is from I'm sure it would be a **** ton of work. I would rather someone put a hemi in a neon and convert it to rear wheel drive. That would be badass.

If youre really going to do that, put a Hemi V-8 in it. The SRT-4 is faster than that six anyhow.

^sure is... so why??? rwd conversion would be different but as suggested dropping a hemi would be very unique and unlike all the other people who pumped up the 2.4L although a hemi would be rather heavy in the front end of a neon. personally i would follow the crowd and dump some Gs into the preexisting 2.4

although i'm a huge fan of the Hemi thatz way too much weigh up front. I don't want a dragster i want a road car. and if they can get 800+ hp from a Nissan Skyline 2.6 I6 than you can get it from a 3.8.

it doesn't even have to be a 3.8 (from a voyager) it can be a 3.5 (From a 300) or even a 2.7.
