I would just do the I6 replacement. but I guess that 350 would sound pretty bad ***!

 

Yea it would lol plus I'd have the horse power I want. I6 is ok but I'm use to v8 power. That way I can make it 350+ hp to the rear wheels lol

 

I guess it would negate the need for gearing.

 

Yea.. I want a auto tranny 700r4 turbo. Idk the gearing I need for that

 

None... you would be able to push 35's no problem. Im sure you can retain your factory tranny though.

 

It couldn't handle the horses I plan on putting in it

 

if by horses you mean what a 350 puts down then your incorrect. I've seen stroked I6's with superchargers pushing the 400hp range with stock tranny's you will twist a driveshaft or strip out your spider gears long before you tank your tranny. and thats only if your locked and in some sticky rocks bro. What do you intend to be doing with your xj ? As long as your not drag racing it or beating it to death on an obstical you wont have to worry about that lol

 

My tranny is old n it's pretty tore up. I want to make it into a baja style jeep where I can just tear s*** up in sand around here
