Neons:

They all are 420A. It does not matter if they are SOHC or DOHC. It is a different head. They are all 420A. I repeated that in case someone is still not sure.

The RS eclipse weighs 2750, the HEAVIEST Neon weighs 2650 at the most, but that is rare. The ACR weighs in at 2400 or so. A fully stripped base Neon can drop in the 22xx range. They are ridiculously light.

Due to the extra weight of the Eclipse, the 420A is designed to provide more torque than the DOHC Neon 420A which is the power discrepencies. This is due to cam profile and ecu mappings.

SOHC-132hp DOHC-150 - Eclipse-140

I forget the torque numbers and the powerband spread.

Another facter is all SOHC neons have a 3.55 gear ratio and the RT/ACR have a 3.94 ratio which is what we have.

We fall in the middle. Faster than the SOHC and slower than the DOHC.The Neon will pull faster numbers with similar mods due to less weight. There are several 14sec all motor Neons and some in the 13's.
