Is there any difference in early and late 3.8 engines that would prevent a direct swap? John |

There are... assuming you're referring to the 3.7L V6 used in the Liberty/Cherokee. The 3.8L was in the early JK Wranglers, IIRC. TwoBobsKJ wrote a good synopsis of an engine swap in a KJ and some of the critical differences across the years. You can swap a different year if you are willing to do some additional surgery on the donor engine. http://www.jeepkj.com/forum/f202/engine-swap-overview-53270/ |

Your assumption is correct. Meant the 3.7 in the KJ Liberty/Cherokee. Thanks John |
