1g engine and 2g transmission into a dodge neon

[Caymen]

Will a 2g fwd transmission be an okay combination with a 1g engine? I'm doing a 4g63 swap, the engine is out of a 91 talon and I'm wondering if a 2g transmission will be a good transmission to use for this swap?

It's fine. Depending on what car the combination is going in, however, be sure to use the right axles -- 2G FWD turbo transmissions use larger diameter axles at the transmission than at least the early 1G FWD turbo transmissions. The overall lengths of the axles aren't exactly the same either, though some combinations have been found to work.

Yeah I'm getting custom axles fabricated for the build, it's going into a dodge neon the plan is to go sleeper galore. The engine will fit as it's the same size, I will just need to figure out my mounting for the engine, and then the wiring will be interesting but since the engine is from a talon and not a Japanese imported vehicle it shouldn't be as bad. Now I'm just looking into how I'm gonna distribute the weight, what I gotta do for the transmission, and then just to figure out front end parts such as axles, And maybe sway bars. Sway pars is more of a personal preference thing though. It's more mounting and transmission that I'm looking into right now. Do you know ballpark whay kind of power the 2g transmission can take?

Nope.

But you can read about some others' experience with them here: How much hp with fwd transmission?

Haha cool. I'll do a bit more digging. Good to know it'll bolt up okay though, thank you for your help
