kennebunksawmill said: (quoted from post at 05:35:04 08/25/12) I drive a 1983 Jeep CJ7 with the straight 6 258 motor. I am planning on replacing my motor with a good used engine this winter (mine is just tired, I run a lift kit with oversize tires & pull a boat in the summer). My local junkyard has a good 304 Jeep motor out of a 70's Cherokee...does the 304 mount right up to my 5 speed, or do I need to buy an adapter kit?
I have installed a late 70's 304 in a 87 wrangler,,, the 304 bolted up to the trans with a special pilot bushing but the rest was a nite-mare... Its not a EZ conversion and a waist of money,,, either stay with you 6 are use a 350 chevy,,, you can buy all that's needed for the chevy swap conversions are geared that way :wink:
Nuttin wrong with your 258 add GM HEI and GM a throttle body injection set up... A AX15 conversion is well worth the expense... I just did a 83 CJ7 with a 258 that had a Dana 300 transfer case...

In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
