Piece of cake; I had a right hand drive mail jeep years ago. Always wanted to put a big block in that thing but a leaky fuel line caused it to burn to the ground in my driveway.

One of the guys who hunts with us has an old army Jeep. Man you can hear the engine and gears whine from a mile off at 4:30 in the morning, and say, yep Rich is coming! Those old 4 cyl engines and low gears really whine! Great 4x4 though!

Yeah, I'm curious to see if the old 232 that's in it will run. Looks like it's been many moons since it was started. I'll try it this weekend and what happens. if not, I know where there's an Olds 455 with a TH400............

Hey guys first hope all is well been working and tinkering some . Put the A on ebay and way low bids figure I wll get it going and then put it back on .



Well changed out the engine mount to the bar mount from Speedway . There mount holes where a inch shy at 16 and my SBF being 17 . 3 engines here and all measure out at 17 so its the bar that is off .

Set it deep and still have 8 inches to the oil pan and about 7 3/4 to the trans pan .
