6 or 8 cylinders?
I'm interested in a 78 or 79 CJ7. Should I get the 6 cyl or the 304?
Obviously the 304 has more power but I'm wondering how much of a gas guzzler it is versus the 6. Opinions? -- "What we need are a couple of good hangings" - FTC Chairman Orson Swindle, regarding email spam |
Re: 6 or 8 cylinders?
How are you going to use the Jeep?
-Offroad exclusively? -50/50? -All street? I'd say that unless there is a real reason to get a V8, you're more than fine with an I6, and better off on the trails because of the superb low torque qualities of the I6. Now, if you find a prime example of a CJ with a V8, why hold back? We don't buy these things for mpg anyway. :) Jay Stuler wrote: > I'm interested in a 78 or 79 CJ7.

Re: 6 or 8 cylinders?
Heh! Well, either one would suit your needs then. I've had four Jeeps
(1CJ, YJ, 2TJs with the I6, not counting two 6 cyl Cherokees, and never been disappointed in any of them, performance-wise. V8s can be a hoot, though too.

Re: 6 or 8 cylinders?
Personally, my suggestion is to dial in on other stuff that is more
important, like rust and cracks. If you happen to find a good V8, then that is cool, but don't overlook a quality unit just because it hasn't got the V8.

Re: 6 or 8 cylinders?
Don't listen to twaldron. We just recently had this argument and he
obviously doesn't know what he's talking about. For a while he was actually claiming that 6-cylinders had more power than 8's! I suspect him of being a Greenpeace agent provocateur. ;-) That being said, however, the 6 is indeed powerful enough for most applications you are likely to see. The 8 can give you more acceleration and/or torque. BUT.. you're probably still not going to outrun most modern cars for applications like merging onto the freeway ramp. I have one of the few situations which actually poses some demand for a larger engine: A Scrambler (long wheelbase jeep) with truck bed that can be used for hauling heavy equipment, as well as occasional heavy towing. Unless you envision something like that, you can certainly make due happily enough with a 6. Fuel mileage on a 6 vs 8 cylinder CJ is the difference between poor and very poor. If fuel economy/the environment is your biggest concern, don't buy any Jeep vehicle, esp. not a CJ. |

Re: 6 or 8 cylinders?
