Ok, I'm sure that they are not the same beasts, but are they similar enough to swap a 1990 Dodge 360 motor in place of my 1989 grand wagoneer's amc 360? will the 727 trans and np229 transfer case all bolt up just the same?

Nope, totally different. All they share is the displacement.Tim Reese

You would have to use a Dodge tranny as the Jeep is Jeep specific. Check out cu4whln's thread. He did a Hemi...

What's wrong with the original 360? Even if it's blown, good running AMC 360s cost next to nothing, and everything will bolt back up and electrical will match as well.1991 Grand Wagoneer, Stock, 99k.

They use the same lifters if that helps .?A free man must not be told how to think, either by the government or by social activists. He may certainly be shown the right way, but he must not accept being forced into it.? Col. Jeff Cooper

somewhat off topic, but i think the people (theres a bunch of them) who say that a mopar 360 is the same as an amc must have never seen either one. i mean the mopar dist. is on the back of the motor how could it ever be the same
back on topic...i think if someone where to put the drivetrain that came in the 5.9 98 zj's minus the t-case that would probably be a good swap, but a whole lot of work.1984 j10 LWB - for sale

We all know that Jeep used Ford 360's, just look at the distributor and carburetor, all Ford parts, anyone tells you it is a Mopar is full of it !
