Um take the block out of the neon and the head off your avenger...... Grin

As far as I know you don't need to do anything special.

I thought I remembered seeing somewhere that they won't interchange. Aren't the heads on the Neon backwards compared to an Avenger, the exhaust comes out the back instead of the front?

The head is on backwards, so you can't use that. But the block is the same.

Please refer to the rest of the thread that you apparently neglected to read...

Okay, just to be sure, does this mean that aftermarket hi-compression pistons for a Neon will fit the Avenger too? I'm like 99% sure they will, but don't want to buy a set and find out some piddly little thing won't let me use them Sad

SOHC and DOHC pistons interchange too or no?

ok. the pistons I would be iffy about. In order for a piston to do it's job [compressing the fuel/air mixture inside the cylinder], it must have a cylinder head attached to the block. Since the heads for a neon NEVER should be used on an Avenger or Eclipse, I wouldn't.

You use Utensils to eat food with, but you don't use a fork for soup.

Make sense?

Yeah makes sense, I was thinking that the valve reliefs would be a bit different, since the intake and exhaust valves are reversed.
