Guess I'm going with the crane springs and retainers, probally with a crane #14 turbo grind cam. And yeah its gonna be a monster. Gonna try and push it as far as I can, SOHC or not. I am gonna be starting a project thread soon. Look for the "Lil Red Rocket". Vroom or Boom one of the two.

Oh its getting done you can count on that!!! And then probally redone. When I get to start on it I'm gonna start a ongoing project thread and name it the "Lil Red Rocket" Keep your eyes open for it.

I heard back fromn dss today and they said they could make custom ones to handle 1000hp. The guy I was talking to told me to sit down when I asked what the price was. I'm looking at $2800 plus tax and shipping. That's a whole lot more than what I thought they would be. Good thing is that includes th...

Thanks for all the info...I have lil yellow post its with info and part numbers everywhere. Keeping in mind this engine is gonna have 8.6:1 compression pistons and a monster turbo system built by esteinmaier should I go bigger on lift and duration than the comp 400? I'll also probally be reving high...

I'm putting all new harware in the head. When I ordered it I got just the bare head. It's never been installed. Who do you recomend to get the hardware from? What type/brand of head gasket? Gonna be running some pretty high boost on it and spraying too.

Thanks... Good deal I already have a new set of valves for that head. I'm gonna bring it to my local machine shop and have a 5 angle valve job done. Now just need to order the comp 400. Gonna upgrade the springs and retainers too. Planning on getting a high quality head gasket for sure. Is there any...

I have a stage one ported and polished head from howell automotive(yes it took forever to get it ... 8 months) Question is what size valves and cam do I need to use on a 2.2l stroker motor, has forged internals and about 8:1 compresion? The motor is getting a turbo system and I am setting up the hea...

As far as the body kit, I'm going with the mopar kit in the back and front and the srt side skirts. I am doing away with the decals of course but I'm wondering how it would look with the same style stripes I have now in red?

Ok the decals are going away. I like the way the front and sides look, but what was I thinking in the back? Looked up the mopar lip kit and can get the front and back for like 90 plus tax.

I want to keep the idenity of the SRT_D... I may just make it a one off kit myself. I'm gonna keep looking. Where would I find that mopar lip kit? Do you know anyone with an srt-4 rear apron and side skirts?

What if I order this front chop the top off and mold the bottom section in to the same height as the rest of the kit? http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt267/psydwynder/03-05DNBC2FBs.jpg and on the wheels I really don't like shinny. Lip on the rims don't really bother me, but I would like a sholid ...

It's on then. I want to extend an invatation to all 2gn forum members to come. Keep in mind it is probally gonna take awhile to finish my car. But I'll keep everyone updated.

Yeah other than the cool factor I don't think it would benifit me. And price wise much better with the asp turbo setup.

Here is a pic of the back of my car with explaination of paint job. http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt267/psydwynder/back1.jpg Here is the side skirts and back bumper I am thinking about. Simple but still different. Gonna keep the front like it is and add a lip spoiler at the bottom. May have to ...

Thanks sidepipe. I'm gonna be ordering those about the same time I order my coilovers. Probally around august. I'll take some pics with before, after, and side by side comparision.

The fuzzy dice were a present from my 11yr old son... Ya'll gotta understand that. He says he wants them when he gets his car. In the center console where the radio use to be is a PLX r-500. Its a w/b o2 computer with data logger. It lets me plug my laptop in to it and do "dyno" runs on the track or...

Think it hurts your eyes...try driving it with the sun reflected off of it. That is the apexi neo molded into the dash, can't really see it but I dont have center ac vents. The cd player was moved to the top of the center bezel to make room for the PLX r-500 in the radio space. I'm redoing all of th...

I have got alot of help from members and I thank them for that. I do love my car and It's a blast to drive. I have fun everytime I turn a wrench on it or get behind the wheel. That's not gonna change. I appreciate the honesty... I really wasn't trying to impress anyone...my questions were serious an...

You call as you see it...I understand that. I'm still building the car. Not giving up on what I want. Here is some pics of the interior and engine. Go ahead and rip the car I know its gonna happen. http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt267/psydwynder/neon017.jpg http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/tt2...

Your right... can't adjust ride hight from the edfc. But the tein coilovers do have ride hight adjustment. Going to go with the teins and hotchkis sway bars. If I dont like em I'll just sell them or swap for some bc's. What size bars front/back would be a good starting point?

I'm gonna post pics of the motor when I start building it. Still working on details. And when its done anyone who wants to drive it...bring you and your neon on down to NoProblem raceway here in louisiana and I'll be more than happy to let you drive it. Hell, I'll rent the track for a day and we all...

The eibach springs were sold six months ago. I never said I had been tuning neons since 96. I said I have owned 4 neons. The stickers are coming off anyway. I'm not gonna take them off till the car is painted because of the fact the paint is a different color underneath. I dont want just an all out ...

Thanks for the input. I am trying to explore all options. There is just so much info out there. Some good some bad. I've decided to go with the built 2.0 stroked to 2.2 and a asp single turbo setup. Just got to get all the specifics nailed down. Gotta still figure out how to make the 2001 manual tra...

Ain't that sweet. Work on 2.0?

Go run in the IHRA...they have special glue...LMAO...thats a new one...NOT!

First off if I wanted to be told what I couldn't do I would go back to the other dodge and srt forums. Second I have been drag racing and building hot rods for almost 15 years. If I can put a 454 in a S-10 pickup run in the 8's consistantly, build and race a 91 toyota celica gt-4 with over 700hp, an...

I decided on the teins because I use my car as a daily driver and had eibach sportline springs and it beat me to death(read POGO stick) The teins are expensive but they allow you to control dampening and ride hight from inside the car. Its really gonna make setting up corner wieghts for autocross an...

Yeah I knew about the sxt's and the abs... That was for everyone elses benefit...Just in case. I would love to put the srt-4 tranny in, question is will it mount to the 2.0 and whats the pcm gonna do... Then again the pcm is only controlling the chassis electronics, cause I'm putting in a megasquirt...

I'll just find some crooked guy that will take $100 dollars to pass my car or Buy another neon, leave it bone stock and switch the windshield out each year for testing. Put that in your pipe and smoke it EPA. Where there's a will there's a way. This is the official testing requirments...Keep in mind...

Its going to lowered... tein coil overs w/ pillow ball upper mounts and edfc. I like my front bumper...just not the back...maybe kamanari rear and side skirts with the dual pipes in middle. And yes that is decals down the sides. The shop that I bought my parts from gave me a 10% discount for putting...
