Engine 6BT in a CJ10 Jeep

[Patsy]

I have a CJ10 Jeep that was my first car, I found it on market place. I am looking to do it up as a 2WD Rat rod type truck.
I was planning on using a 4BT but I received a very good condition 6BT that was in a rarely used but well maintained generator.

Anyone know if it has been done? or had any experience in this section.

Understanding I will be replacing all the running gear.

About which Point? I will Assume the 6bt Part. Might just sell the 6BT to pay for the 4BT.

I would think the firewall would need to be reworked extensively to fit a 6BT. Theres also the weight of the 6BT to factor in, but it would look the part for a rat-rod. Whichever route you go, make sure to post up pictures!

Sorry, I should have been more specific.
It’s just that a CJ10 is extremely rare. If I remember correctly, they only made around 300 of em in the US. The Mexican plant only made a few hundred as well.

I just can’t imagine doing anything other than restoring one. But, to each his own. Good luck and let us know how it goes.
