He gives the reason, because it's cool. He's looking for the "COOLEST" engine swap. There was a poster from Fort Collins who used to recommend big block Cadillac engines for the low rpm torque.

I always thought an aluminum block Northstar would be "cool". Flat torque curve, good power, and light. Then again, there is nothing wrong with my I6....

Jet engine, very cool!!!
And it's a great way to impress a lot of people in the 20 seconds it would take to qualify for a Darwin award.

I have an 86 Jeep XJ do you have any in info
i got the POS 2.8 V6 in it now is doesent run and i want to go bigger everything axels engine tires every thing
Well, you have the wrong vehicle to modify. You cannot go any bigger than a V6 or a 4 banger, it won't even fit a straight six 4.0 engine.
They changed the design in 87 so the larger engine will fit.
I have heard of a 3.2 or maybe a 3.8 fitting in. You have a GM bellhousing I believe on it.
As far as a lift goes, unless you want to get into the thousands, you are limited to 2" or so. A 2" spacer kit isn't too expensive or hard to put in depending on your local rust levels. Getting the shocks off is the hardest part...
