Default Hemi swap into 98 Limited???
I am wondering if anyone has seen or done a 5.7/6.1 Hemi swap into a ZJ Grand Cherokee. I am wondering. My 5.2 runs great but yea never know.

You could pull it off if you converted it to a carb setup, but it'd be hell if you tried a direct swap, even with a donor vehicle you'd never get the PCM right...

That would be cool to see. Would you just have to change up the motor mounts to fit the hemi, right?

I would have to do some research. Right now it is just an idea. I may look in to an aftermarket harness for the FI
