I've got an 87 Cherokee and got to thinking of the old wagoneers that had the 304 or 360 v8. Is it possible to fit one into a Cherokee?

anything is possible.

whether it is worth the effort or not is up to the builder.

Those motors in stock form arent very impressive.

I like the 350 for the plain fact that gm motors are so easy to work on.

I really like chevy motors and their reliability. You can do anything if you set your mind to it.
