Sleeper
I've been readin about what ppl say for 2nd gen neons and srt-4 swaps. My question is how hard do you think it would be to swap out my engine and tranny from an 05 SXT (which is currently an automatic) to and srt-4 setup. Also what else do you think I should do (ie. maybe put in rear wheel brakes, new axles, new clutch). Basically im lookin to do this and i really dont want a sleeper that just breaks everytime i get into it. Also does anyone know if there is a 6-speed tranny that would bolt up to the housing on an srt-4.
thanks |

RE: Sleeper
thanks for the info. Also do you know how hard would it be to turn my automatic neon into a 5-speed.

You would need to find a complete T350 5-speed transmission, either 3.55 final drive (SE, SXT) or a 3.94 (R/T-ACR)...you would also need the shifter assembly, new pedal assmeblies, clutch master cylinders, etc (i've posted a partial part list on a few occasions, just do a search you should be able to come up with them). You also need the axles out of an MTx (only the passenger side) and a new clutch ( i would suggest the PT Cruiser Non-Turbo Modular clutch). The swap isnt easy, but its not hard either...if you are seriously considering the SRT-4 swap though, just wait and do the engine and transmission swap instead.

RE: Sleeper
Yea the idea is to change the tranny when i decide to do the swap to an srt-4 engine. My only problem is i cant seem to find many srt-4 engines and trannies besides ebay. If you have any other suggestions Id be grateful for all your input.
Thanks |
RE: Sleeper
As i said, buying the wrecked SRT-4 is the 100% best way to go, you just have to look on Ebay Motors, junk-yard listings, make lots of phone calls, and search search search.
