The JP 350
I'm an engine junkie. I pore over dyno tests, study cylinder head flow numbers, and speculate on camshaft selections. Yeah, geek. But, in all that research it occurred to me that I could take the GM Performance Parts 350/290hp crate engine from my '68 M-715 and upgrade it with a few select components to shoot for a 400hp/400lb-ft recipe that anybody could duplicate with no machine shop and only basic mechanical skills. Why so focused on the ubiquitous small-block Chevy in a Jeep magazine? Well, it's still the engine most commonly swapped into Jeeps both old and new and there are literally thousands of Jeeps running around already sporting small-block Chevy power.inline_mediumwraptextright26869987/techarticles/engine/154_0911_jp_350_part_1_400hp_chevy_engine154_0911_02+350_290hp_crate_engine_upgrades+engine.jpgTrue
