putting a carb'd 350 in your Jeep is a giant leap backwards.

I'd rather have a fuelie 2.5L 4-cyl over a carb 350...all day long and twice on sundays.

This is coming from somebody that has actually owned a Chevy truck with a carb'd 350 putting out around 350hp.

I'm just looking for help with the questions that I asked, I like the decision I made with what engine type. so if anyone could help out that be great.

if you want help and guidance then here you go: rebuild the 2.5L and call it a day. put your money into the 2.5L, the axles and the gearing.
