Hello! I am new here and need lots of advice. My baby is dead in the water. Overheated and blew the engine. I was just wondering if it was worth putting the same model 3.8L V6 in or should I look into a different engine? Has anyone done a swap and what have you done" I am not overly impressed...

I have a 1997 TJ with a factory 4.0 straight 6 and a recently rebuilt ax15 transmission. Since buying it off my father I've wanted to do an LS/v8 swap on it. Ive been pushing it pretty hard as of late with regular 100+ mile drives on weekends due to work and university, and have also taken it...

Alright so to start.. Fresh engine swap. From what I can tell is a older engine due to the one wire starter vs the original having two. Get that rewired and now have a crank no start condition. Testing and a few parts later, tell me no fuel to the pump and no spark. Will not even sputter on...

Getting ready to start into a TDi swap on my '97 TJ because my 2.5 gave way not too long ago. Thought about the Magnum swap, but being kind of a "diesel nut" I'm pretty set on the VW option. Anyone on here done the TDi, or can point me in the direction of a thread on this topic? Just wanna pick...

I Just bought a 2001 TJ 4.0L with 280k miles on it with a blown engine and new nv3550 with only 5k miles on it for $1500. I recently found a used engine at a salvage yard with 116k miles for $795 and a 6 month parts warranty. I was wondering if 116k miles was too high to bother with swapping...
