It will fit in there but none of the brackets, cables, mounts or lines will fit. No!
No, the body parts for a 96 neon are a different style than that of a 2001. If you try to put a 1996 body part on a 2001, the bolt holes will not line up. Your best bet is 99, 98, 97, 95 neon body parts. They are the same body style. I own a 99 neon, it has a 95 brake light, 96 head light, 95 fender, and a 98 engine. It's had a rough life. lol

They are everywhere. from the battery to the engine from the battery to the frame from the header to the body from the engine to the body and on every device in the vehicle you will find one.
Yes, the mounting position is the same, but the actual mounts are different. Bolt the mounts from your 1975 corvette to your 1996 LT1 engine and it should go right in. The transmission should also bolt right up to your 1996 LT1 engine.
side of the throttle body to your right facing the engine
On the 4.0 liter V6 the big rubber engine air intake tube goes from the engine air filter to the throttle body located at the front / top of the engine
