I realize that. It puts out less power than the 304 available in the
same model year. Someone else mentioned the 4.0 liter, that's why I
brought it up again. Because it *does* put out more power than the
old 304s, but it's not an option that was available on the old CJs
that I'm looking at. If it *was* available on them then I'd probably
go with one of them rather than the V8. "More power is good" is just
my personal opinion.
