The same basic engine was built until a few years ago last used in the Jeep Wrangler billed a 4.0 six cylinder. AMC had a weak reputation in many areas but in some areas, like engines they found it cheaper to overbuild the component than to do the extensive testing (cost in both time and money) and engineering to ascertain what the absolute minimum need was. Some of their V-8s used forged rods, cranks and pistons, folks that drag raced them used the stock components because they were as strong as any aftermarket racing component.
