Nice Neon, a friend of mine had one exactly like that a few years ago. When I read the title, it kind of surprised me to see you're doing an all motor build. Are you sticking with the 2.0 or building a 2.4? Making big power with them all motor isn't easy, but your power goal and quarter mile time seems attainable. What kind of wheels are those by the way?

NGC started in 2003.
You can hit 175 stock bottom with bigish cams. AFAIK 18's are good for it stock bottom.
Cool to see you here James.

Thanks Roy. yeah, they say that the Crower Stg 3 has the same lift as the #18s, and duration of the #22s...not sure tho. I have the specs but Im too lazy to look them up.
I just replaced the rod/piston, and bearing on my #1 cylinder and I should have everything back together this weekend. I needed a head gasket and stuff.
