I'm just throwing out ideas to my dad and what would be more practical for an engine swap before I leave for school.
First off, I have a 98 wrangler SE with the 4cyl and 33" tires
1) I've thought about the 4.0 6cyl which would obviously be a step up and have enough power for 33's but I've heard it's a pain to swap this into an original 4cyl.
2) The "General" v8 swap.. 4/5 technicians from my work have told me a v8 swap would be smart due to more power and better gas mileage than what I'm getting right now (14ish with mixed driving) due to the v8 not having to work as hard on the highway.
3) The "Rich Person Swap" Cummins 3.9 diesel :D I know I couldn't afford one of these swaps but I'd love to have a diesel in it. Just thought I'd throw it out there for discussion ;)
4) What other cheap swaps are out there that would be fairly easy to drop in? The swap isn't going to happen right away necessarily but ideas always help. Planning to leave for school in the fall.
Opinions?
