YJ engine Transplant
 
I have a 88 YJ its in good condition but the 258 doesnt have the power
it should, the automatic transmision is about done with, and the
carter carb is ----. I've been reading into a 350 drop but from the
sounds of it, its expensive and takes some time. I'm just praying that
if I skank a fuel injected 4.0 engine and transmision from a cherokee
it would just bolt right in. Up here in vermont they're not alot of
wranglers in salvage yards and its alot easier and probaly cheaper to
find a cherokee.

im for the turbo diesel swap. turbo diesels are better off road, and
the newer ones are quiet. something like the ISB 170 would be good
