One of the sickest avengers i have seen. I wish i still had mine LOL
 
So your using the 420a then. I've been waiting for someone to the an avenger build with the 2.5 v6..I guess I'll just have to wait somemore..
 
? im using the 420a head on an edz 2.4 block.. so its no longer a 420a.. its a 2.4L..., this was the srt-4 precursor

you do know the avenger comes stock with a 2.5 v6 and the blow.. some swap in a 3.0..but the v6s are still slow.
 
The v6 is slow as a turtle..I'd Like to either build that for twin turbo, or drop in a nice 6 bolt, and be done with it..The car is on 176K miles and still going strong..So one of these days I'll get my girl a new car and be able to turbo the avenger..
 
most s/c the 2.5 or 3.0.. but still yield low results for the cash they put in..
 
So, the motor mounts are the same as the 420a or did you fabricate a new set? What moved you to your current direction, why not the SRT-4 swap?
