Thanks man, lol.

I'm not to big on doing visual mods, but this mod was needed. So much comfort it makes me fall asleep... But as soon as I hit a bump in the road my head bounces off the seat and wakes me up

They are the stock SRT seats, they are technically called viper-inspired seats as they are modeled off the seats found in a real Dodge Viper. The only other option for the SRT besides the Vipers is the SRS Air Bag Seats which are stock neon seats, but with the same material as the viper inspired seats

So as some of you know, my car and I decided that hitting 7800 rpms would be fun (ok ok, I admit it, I decided and the car had no say in it).

Well it was really fun and all until my one valve decided to ruin the party.. It felt like going back up with all the other valves was overrated and I could get a little bit more fuel and air into the cylinder before the piston came up... well, it stood corrected and now its stuck, bent, and toast.

Pictures.. Enjoy.

Head, 2nd cylinder.. Intake valve who was very brave and very, very, bent.

Picture of Cylinder 2. This is the piston that gave the intake valve a really good time.... time and time again..

This is Cylinder 1... Really don't know what the hell happened here, I noticed chunks taken out of the metal on both sides.. It also shown the same thing on the piston.. I don't have a clue but I figured what the hell, ill take a picture of it too..

Well I really hope you enjoyed my pictures as much as I enjoyed going that fast and that high on the rpms.. Needless to say, my car has pretty much done it all when it comes to breaking..

Stay tuned for the next episode of "As the car breaks" (should be within the next 3-5 months).

Detonation in cylinder 1 maybe, and then the valve boo. Get a DOHC block and slap that magnum head on, and get to that shit.

What cars dohc blocks will work with my pre-ngc car??

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Fri May 27, 2011 7:15 pm

Sooo... 7800 in a Neon is a bad thing then? whodathunkit!?

Haganracing · Post by **Haganracing** » Fri May 27, 2011 7:21 pm

Yes, its bad lol.

I don't recommend it.

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Fri May 27, 2011 7:22 pm

What about 7750?

INVUJerry · Post by **INVUJerry** » Fri May 27, 2011 7:22 pm

Uhm, the 420a out of a mitsu (2.0 dohc na) from like 95-99, and any 1gn dohc. I think that's it that has the different pistons.

Haganracing · Post by **Haganracing** » Fri May 27, 2011 7:34 pm

Really?? Hmm.. I will think about it..

ZeroChad · Post by **ZeroChad** » Fri May 27, 2011 7:39 pm

Meh, your car is just being a wuss. I do 9000 on mine daily.

Was this on your new mag head? What were u running for a cam/ valvetrain? I was getting float with a 400 and mag springs

Haganracing · Post by **Haganracing** » Fri May 27, 2011 8:08 pm

Thankfully this wasn't my mag head.. i was going to do a mag head swap after Carlisle.. lol.

I was running a comp 400 with regular springs because I heard it was safe lolol..

What are you using and running 9k with lol

INVUJerry · Post by **INVUJerry** » Fri May 27, 2011 9:36 pm

I should have told you earlier, stock valve springs with stock rev limit is okay with the 400 lol.

Haganracing · Post by **Haganracing** » Fri May 27, 2011 9:43 pm

LOL, they aren't ok with 7800 limiter. You kept telling me i was short shifting.. now look LOLOLOL

Dang! Time for the stainless set brr sells and some 10.5:1 pistons

srtjesse · Post by **srtjesse** » Sat May 28, 2011 3:39 pm

like i said before hagan if you are not breaking parts you are not doing it right

Haganracing · Post by **Haganracing** » Sat May 28, 2011 4:13 pm

If thats the case, I really don't want to be doing it right after this next motor

BlackRoseRacing · Post by **BlackRoseRacing** » Sat May 28, 2011 5:14 pm

<<im not responsible for you braking your motor using the AFX....
I can get you a nice set of valves for that head....
Also you were probably floating the valves if you were using stock springs at that high if a rev and hence why you hit the piston...

Haganracing · Post by **Haganracing** » Sat May 28, 2011 5:38 pm

Its all good, i'm blaming it all on the car

I'm just going to throw a magnum head (with crane cams valve springs possibly) on a new bottom end and call it a day lol

Haganracing · Post by **Haganracing** » Sat Jun 11, 2011 1:27 pm

Well, I don't have much progress but I do have a new bottom end..

Came out of 1gn DOHC motor. Not sure of the year but yeah, pretty clean for what it was.. Also was marked on the valve cover the mileage of the motor, 80k.. Not bad

Danteneon · Post by **Danteneon** » Sat Jun 11, 2011 1:59 pm

Woot!

Haganracing · Post by **Haganracing** » Sat Jun 11, 2011 2:35 pm

Yeah, I'm pretty stoked. I hope to have this done within the next month

Danteneon · Post by **Danteneon** » Sat Jun 11, 2011 2:50 pm

Haganracing · Post by **Haganracing** » Sat Jun 11, 2011 2:53 pm
