Stupid question, but what kind of number are you expecting, and how much $$$ for the swap. I am picking up a '03 or '04 Rubicon in the next few months, and this swap has my interest.
Thanks
Charles

even a regular hemi motorset go for $2-$3k from a junkyard. I could imagine a 6.1 would be somewhere around $5k for a motor. personally id be scared to take a jeep with that much power upto fast speeds.

Total cost on a swap is around 29,000.00 . We only used brand new off the factory line...no junk yard parts here.
