Possible Engine Swap...

Post by strykr » Thu Aug 06, 2009 8:12 pm

So Ive been looking at allpar.com and was looking at the neon engines.. then I clicked on the link to the 2.4L 'World Engine' and was curious as to wat car its in, and if we would be able to get it in our cars?

If so that would be amazing!! and alot better of a swap then the SRT4! 300HP 260ft/tq stock!:P The only downside is the 22city/28highway mpg.. :s

If it's the one I'm thinking of isn't that the engine that's in the Caliber? I believe it's too big and would take too much fabrication to work in our cars.

Patience, of course, is a very powerful weapon, but sometimes I start to regret that it is not a firearm.

Would it be possible to fit that Getrag 6 speed onto a NSRT-4 2.4 engine? :shock:

It would only be better in stock form. With a few easy upgrades you have more power from the Chrysler 2.4 vs the World 2.4.

No bellhousing is completely different and I still dont think the trans will fit in the car. If you have to have a greteg even with Pwerks and Drakito doing amazing upgrades to the T350 and T850 the one from the R53 Cooper S is the closest but still a ways off. The starter is on the wrong side for a start, before you decide to have a go at this go drive an R53 the trans horrible even more notchy and vague than an 850
