I heard somewhere that lower model eclipses have neon engines in them.

Yeah, second gen non-turbos had those neon engines.

Mitsubishi produced its motors for various companies... such as hyundai, chryslers, i believe colts had them at one point, i remember taking the tranny off a chrysler once and it fit on an eclipse 1st gen

Re:1g eclipse with hyundai valve cover.....?
 

yeah... i have.... thats when i noticed mitsubishi -----d itself to other car companies.... becuase i needed a stock airbox so my car could pass smog.. since i had modified my original one... i found this decent looking colt. and i took the airbox from it.. slapped it on mine and it fit... i couldnt believe it... somewhere i hear those little colts haul ass....

I heard somewhere that Honda built several B18B engines for the chevy cavalier and sunfire and that other damn car. I think it was in Sport Compact Car or something.

doesn't GM and HOnda have some kinda deal with engine development?

Re:1g eclipse with hyundai valve cover.....?
 

Most people don't think of Hyundai and performance...but things are changing.
