Hello 1sickcj and welcome to the site! :chug: (back off from the beer Susie... :))

You can drop the I6 in with relatively little problems.

You would need to swap out 1 frame mount for the engine and maybe have to slightly move the trans mount. You would also need the assorted radiator and heater hoses, motor mounts, exhaust rework, throttle cable and a little rewiring (for location).
 
Hey! maybe we can swap some parts! I have a 258 in one of mine and I will need V-8 stuff to install a 360. Motor mounts, throttle cable ect.

BTW Welcome to the best CJ site on the web!
