Yeah thats sweet,but more than I'm looking to spend. To much power also,probably would rip my unibody frame rails in half.

I'm just looking for a Mild 5.2L 300 HP small/RV cam. I can have my engine rebuilt,longblock for $1,600.00. Thats what I'm looking for and add a RV cam to it.

Oh and another thing, you should register here: www.jeepforum.com
These Dakota peeps can get pretty harsh at times, folks over at JP are very supportive.

Also, watch out with engines like the one "here" linked up there. All the current crate engines I'm aware of are based on the 360 which means you'll need to swap your torque converter and in some cases change your driver side motor mount.
