cj7 4bt cummins swap
« on: August 07, 2011, 11:06:18 pm »
Hi, wondering if anyone has any info on doing a 4bt cummins swap in a cj7. I am thinking of doing this swap and dont know much about these motors or what kind of trans they will bolt to. I am looking for better mpg. My 285 has a crack in the block and i think a diesal swap might be cool.
