OK, I have been gathering parts for some time now to build my Wagoneer. So far its looking like SOA, HD44 w/crossover/histeer, 14 bolt, th400/D300. Untill the other day my plans were to propane the 360 but I now want to put a 6.2 in her. I know the weight will require extra lift in the front and a larger radiator. Motor mounts and trans crossmember aren't a prob.

Does someone make a chevy style radiator for a FSJ large enough for the 6.2?
It will be n/a to start than upgraded with a/twin turbo(s). Any sites have single/twin turbo Waggys I could look at?
For the people who have done this, (6.2 in Waggy), how'd you like it?
How do ya'll feel about turbos for offroad?

A stock 3 core or 4 core AMC Radiator will work. Got to a "real" radiator shop and they can swap inlet and outlets sides as well as give you the GMC size that you need. That is what we have done on our three swaps. I don't have a turbo 6.2 nor does my J20 and neither does my dad's waggy, we just have natural 6.2 and we love them.
