Hi,
My name is Chris Tobin I am the Editor of Ultimate Diesel Buyer's Guide magazine and an avid automotive/off road enthusiast. We had a 1980 CJ7 when I was growing up and I just bought a basket case 2003 WJ Limited with a blown engine. I hope to be able to get one of the new Cummins R2.8 crate engines and do a diesel engine swap. We'll see how it goes.
I will likely be needing a lot of little stuff to make the Jeep right. It has the 4.7L engine in it now if anyone wants it for parts. I was told it does not/will not run, the intake manifold is off of it. I will not be attempting to get it running with this engine. If I can't do the diesel swap/upgrade I want I will probably part out or sell the Jeep.
Take care,
Chris
