Go through the trouble of an engine swap for 2-3 HP and 17 Ft lbs of torque?

No into a tibby or elantra Into an accent maybe, then it might be worth it.

 

so Random there are no similarities between the 2.0 and 2.4?

Makes me like my neon even more the big swap for the neons is the 2.4 block from the stratus!

Use the 2.4 block the 2.0 head and all the goodies for the 2.0 still work!!!!

The benifit is more displacement better bottom end power!

 

The 2.4L in the Santa Fe is the same 2.4L that is used in the I4 sonta. It is not a Beta or an Alpha motor. (I can't remember the designation on that motor.)

For the accent, the best bet is to use a beta motor or the Sonata/Santa Fe I4...if you can get it to fit!
