Anything before 2003, as the 2003+ crank trigger will not work with your pre 03 wiring. A 2003+ block will be basically useless to you.

I have found a 00 stratus 2.4 that i am looking to go pick up tomorrow. I guess this might be a stupid question but will the power steering pump, alternator, coil pack, and water pump off my 2.0 DOHC work on the 2.4 or will i have to use the 2.4 items??? Please help me before i go get the motor to see if i need to get the other items or if i can just purchase the engine.
