I know for sure that the intake manifolds are different, The 96 will have EGR and the 04 likely will not. otherwise should work.

My Daily driver is a 95 Neon 2.0L DOHC. When I bought it I was told they had paid to have a 99 2.0L DOHC swapped in it place with 45,000 less miles on it. Sorry, but I don't know how much or if any of the 04 is inter-changeable or not.

Not sure on the cars, but I know for 1997 on the trucks and jeeps ALL the sensor connectors changed. So you at a minimum would need to retain those from your old engine.

Sorry, they will not enterchange. The 2004 is a NGC motor. They use different electronics and will not swap with earlier cars. You will need to look for a motor that is atleast 2001 or older. First gens are getting scarce since the circle track guys have been snapping them up and killing them.
