Re: 1986 CJ7 4.0 Motor Swap w/Pictures
Thanks for this, I just bought an 82 CJ7 , someone swapped a 4.0 into. They guy I got it from didn't have all the specifics but did say he was having fuel issues and he thought it was a 90-91 motor . I figure the pump isn't pushing enough, so I took the risk.
Do I've been doing my internet research and will start looking into the issue in the next few weeks.

Re: 1986 CJ7 4.0 Motor Swap w/Pictures
Thanks for doing the write up. I bought a friends 82 CJ7 from him. It was missing the Transmission and Transfer Case . i purchased used ones and was going to put it together but I decided to put a 4.0l in it and a nv3550 which was in the garage. I drop the 4.0l in to night. fits like a glove. i will be using the air box like yours. 97 cherokee wiring harness.
So I want to use a mechanical fan but I was looking at the off set of the engine after we got it in, big question.
I also was going to use a hydrological clutch from my 2001 wrangler, spare parts in the garage.
Thanks for all the tips.
I will read it again, on your fuel pump set up.
