I have a 1998 Eclipse GS or RS With an Automatic Transmission, I don't know exactly at this moment. The eclipse has no motor at this current time and was wondering if I can swap in a 1996 Dodge neon engine into it, the Neon it's coming from is a Manual Transmission. I know that they're both the 420a engine codes. Also from a certain ebay listing I found that they are compatible. Again in the Eclipse I have no motor, so I would need the neon engine to bolt in and also for the components to work with the Eclipse like the alternator, power steering, and everything else that a car needs.
Below is the link to the ebay listing where I found the idea.

Please let me know if there's anything else that I would need to do to make this swap work easily.
I just want some confirmation from another individual so I don't purchase an engine in vain.
Thanks a lot and I appreciate any input that you guys can give. : )
To answer why I'm doing this, the answer is because I'm strapped for cash and don't really care for horsepower *gasp* I know shocking.
