Probably because it takes an army to move a sprint car.
I don't think you are too far off with the Neon Motor, I think the 2.4 is just a little larger version. Junk yard price of a 2.4 is probably $400.00 but I bet you could get the 2.0 exempted with a phone call. Then you need to find somebody with machine shop experience to work up a set of throttle bodies. Me I would get a M/C throttle body and cut and splice the thing together.
It sound like you are pretty close to being a Midget Racer Owner.
