Just buy a T850, or throw your motor out the door. Better off having something that bolts right up, a T350 even built is far too weak.

You need:
FMIC
CUstom MMs and Brackets (they dont fit right in your car)
Bracket for the PCM
Interior wiring Harness
Engine wiring Harness
T850
Instrument Cluster, which means full dash swap (the PCM needs the cluster)
etc etc etc....

Its more than just an engine.

Its made for the power the car has, and can handle power FAR past that with an upgraded clutch and flywheel. Its an excellent transmission with entirely different gearing than that of the T350 that came in most regular standard neons.
