\"RWD<\/a><\/p>\n

Adam Chavez<\/a> spent four years building his 2005 Dodge Neon SRT-4 in his Texas garage. The car is powered by a turbocharged 2.4 L A853 inline-four turned 90 degrees from a factory traverse layout to a longitudinal layout thanks to a custom tubular front. The built motor features Eagle rods, JE pistons (.020 over), port and polished head, Crower S2 camsshaft, Precision PTE 6262 turbocharger, and custom wiring harness. It mates to a Dodge 904 three-speed automatic transmission with an adapter plate and custom converter. Power is sent through a custom driveshaft to a narrowed Ford Explorer 8.8-inch rear end with 3.73 gear and 31-spline axles. Adam’s next project is a 1974 Super Beetle with a Subaru WRX engine.<\/p>\n
