Hehe, today smoke started coming out of my hood, pulled over and popped it, noticed that oil was leaking onto the exhaust manifold. Seems like a valve cover gasket Guess Ill be replacing it this weekend.

Ok I dont really like the looks of bodykits, but i do like the looks of skirts/lips, anyone have any recommendations and places to look?

I got it for about $3800, which was a good price up here. Its funny cuz this ATX Neon feels faster then my 1996 MTX Civic H/B. Well another weird thing.

It has 125k miles :shock: , first I would like to ask is that a lot for a dodge motor and what should I be doing, looking for etc. Second when the engine is warmed up I can hear the n...
