  15. Jeep Grand Cherokee & Commander Forums
    I noticed while working on my engine that there's quite a bit of space in front of the 3.6L V6. In the future if I was to replace the engine, would it be possible to mount either the 5.7 Hemi or the 6.4 Hemi engines in there? Those typically come along with the SRT not the Laredo, but I was just...

    I have two situations I'd welcome recommendations on. The engine is a 258, date code 1990, unknown mileage. I have to admit that the engine is pretty tired but still runs well. 1. The PCV valve seems to be functioning but the PCV intake hose connecting the valve cover to the air cleaner has...
