85 CJ engine swap
 

What is the most economical relatively simple engine swap for an 85 CJ , 300
000 km 258. My auto 904 tran is making a grinding noise when put into
reverse so I might as well swap it as well. I think I would like to stay
away from computers etc...as I will not have a complete doner vehicle. I
will look for something from the local scrap yard. I have moser 1 piece
axles. I was thinking of a carbed chev 350 with auto trans and then and
adapter to my D300 transfer case. Any other recomendation.

They're made for each other. You won't have to improvise a thing,

radiator, mounts, and headers, as if it were a stock from the factory.
