[QUOTE="trickydick, post: 1400464, member: 12214"] An interesting choice for an engine that hasn't been mentioned would be a 4 cylinder deisel engine like a old mercedes engine or cummins out of a bread van. It would be a rugged long life engine with excellent torque and good mpg. Of course paying someone else to do the work would be kinda pricey. The ford 302 could possibly be the cheapest way to go. A Chrysler 360/318 would be a very easy drop in V-8 option(engine mounts might be available as Jeeps used Chryler engines for may years). You could even put a chevy 4.3 v6 or a ford 4.0 v6. The great thing about your jeep is that all of the previously mentioned carburated engines wouldn't be that difficult of a swap and would provide good power and reliability. [/QUOTE]
