It also had three two-barrel carbs which makes it kind of impractical for a JK. Now, if you guys want to build a JeepLab CJ and drop a 440 six pack in it I'm in. Never worked with the 440 motor. Between me and family i've done LT-1 corvette; LS-6 454 chevelle, Chevy SS 396 and others over time. I even rebuilt a 301 Pontiac turbo (worst motor I've ever had. I broke the crankshaft!. . . what can I say, the trans am looked cool). My JK is the first Mopar product I've ever owned.

BTW the 392 "hemi" is less than 10K.
The 440 sound is insane....

What is the best power to weight option thats fuel injected? Maybe the 340 ? I vote naturally aspirated, so when you get bored, you can put the blower on later.
