if you just want to drop in an engine and go, then get another chrysler 2.0 engine.

im assuming its the newer body style. get a motor that fits those years.
you should be able to type your vin number into carfax and it will tell you what year it is...i believe.
 
Ok the car is a june 1994 talon.....so i guess its one of the first for the new chrysler motor.again some one correct me here if im wrong........but my question is since its a 94 .am i limited in what year motor i can put in this?.......i understand it has to be a chrysler motor but can i put a newer motor in with out all the computor and wiring hassles?.....also will any chrysler 2.o work or does it have to come from a talon?.........sorry if my questions are kind of not bright .but always been driving my ford mustang .but i love this car and want it on the road asap.........please some one help me out here or direct me to where i can find what motors i can transplant ...........and thanks chris for your reply but im looking for a little more info than you offered .but again thanks..............HELP!!!!!!
 
its probably a 95 model year. it should be a 420a. any motor from a non turbo 95-99 talon/eclipse should bolt right in.
 
try going to tigerjapanese.com they sell a shit load of jdm engines or if u give them a call they should be able to help you find an engine your only problem might be that its a canadian company
 
90-94 non turbos have the mitsu engine 95-98 non turbo have the crysler engine (which is the neon 16 valve engine)
