[QUOTE="2tornadoes, post: 427854, member: 19231"] I'll be curious to see what others post here. I am not new to Jeeps but haven't had one in awhile. Just acquired an '89 2.5 with 238k on the clock. The four cylinder is such a dog that I'm curious about swapping too but don't want to swap in the 4.2 carb motor that would normally go with it. I've thought of small 4 cylinder diesel motors, the ever common (and frowned upon) LS swap or standard Chevy 350. I've heard that there are no swaps that are just simple drop in, even the 4.2 to the 4.0 can be a PITA what with wiring, motor mounts, etc. so it'll be interesting to read what others have done or read. Good luck on the Jeep ownership, they are fun and frustrating all at once! [/QUOTE]
