#37445, "Do neon lifters and rockers work in our cars?"




          

I don't want to mess with cams and stuff just yet, But I want to strenghten the head a little durring the swap/rebuild (I still don't know). Howell sells a rebuild kit for the neon for $300 all I'd need would be the springs.($99) I'd have a head thats ready for action later with cams or whatever.

the pt cruisar stuff is what u want yes the neon stuff will work though but the pt stuff is better, here is who u wnat to see for head products, www.blackdogmotorsports.com they have some extra strong rockers custom made get pt lash adjusters and bd rockers, crane/ or crower springs they have ss valves too...

You can have it cheap, fast or good. Pick any two.

If you want it cheap and fast, it's not going to be good.

Uhm...I thought that the Neon had an extremely heavy top end and wasn't capable of the revs that our lighter top ends could handle.

Well let me clarify I was speaking about the PT style ones that gary howell offers as a kit for the neon. It's a cheap way to get the head rebuild kit - the cams and gears. I would be getting the PT style, just as a kit for the neon.

Aren't Neons SOHC? Would that make a difference?

not all are SOHC, the 95-99 cars came with the same DOHC engine that we have, the flow is just reversed.

If your just gonna be getting stock pt cruiser parts get them from Bob Kise (forum dodge, Michigan I think) he gives great discounts on all OEM parts and it will be cheaper than howell
