Yep, venturing into into uncharted territory again with my Jeep addiction!
This will be my 1st attempt at AMC motor swapping!
Looking' at my '79 Cherokee 360 motor (reportedly 69k miles and stored for 2 years with oiled cylinders) with its fabulous stock egr plumbing, 2bbl Motorcraft carb, and aerodynamic lightweight stock cast iron intake thinking....screw this, gimme an Edelbrock AL non-egr intake, 500-600 CFM Edelbrock carb, and an HEI and move on to installing the motor.
Oh yah, it is getting put into an '80 J10 that was a 360 originally but currently sports a cockeyed 258 because only one motor mount bolt was close enough to connect. Proudly I can offer this was not my doing but that of a professional con man (and his son) out of Arkansas. Name and address available upon request!
What do all your bigger brains out there think about this plan of action with the motor?
And,
Can a Mopar 360 intake be used for an AMC 360? How about an HEI distributor?
