hi I just found this forum doing a little google searching, I have a couple offroad rigs and just want to make this jeep a fun toy to play in town and do a little offraoding nothing serious, it currently has a 2.8 with either a cracked head or blown head gasket but I hate 2.8's and I either want to put my 04 vortec 4200 straight six or I have a 02 ls1 but I would really like to put the six in it just so no one would think much of it and these motors are massive little dudes power wise mine was a 275hp 275ft lbs and I'll have a tune and free flowing exhaust so I should make 290 at least, I'm hoping for 300 but who knows....ok to my point has anyone else tried anything like this or am I going to be the first. I haven't pulled the 2.8 out yet so I can messure to see if it will even fit but I'll get there, anyway I like the forum glad I found it

ohh I'll be sure to post some pics when I start doing it, one of the reasons I want to do this is my best friend a Mr. brenden patten who runs lt1swap.com so I have a inside line on custom harness's and programing and such so thats why I want something gm and at least 280 horsepower
