I got an engine going into my XJ since the original one needs a rebuild...so, I've been doing some looking around. And I was wondering if there is a 4.3 kit. All Ive been seeing are 4.5's and higher.

Or would I be better off getting a rebuild kit, which excludes the crankshaft, then buy a new one (my crankshaft is needing work and the quote I got to ground it down is much $$$$)

What do you guys think?
