6.0/4L80E into 06 JEEP LJ Rubicon Motor started out as a 2004 LQ4 with 317 heads.
I had a full rebuild with Mahle forged pistons and internals.
Z06 "5308" cam with ls6 springs and Texas Speed 7.4 pushrods.
LS2 TB, FAST LSXRT102 intake with stock lq4 injectors that are soon to be replaced with FAST 46lbs. Will also be replacing my stock intake pump with a Walbro 255lph unit.
I used a Speartech harness, 12voltunlimited instrument panel and autometer sportcomp2 programmable gauges.
Novak adapters for the mounts, 241OR/4l80e adapter. Also their rad lock radiator with fan/shroud.
Transmission has a transgohd2 shift kit and a lokar shifter. Also used the lokar linkage for my transfer case shifter.
Swap was done by Trendsetters Off-road in Weatherford Texas, tuning and custom air intake/3" stainless exhaust done by SNL Performance in Haslet and CBK.
Right now build is about 90 percent complete. Also upgrading to a psc steering pump and working out some final adjustments.
I'll add some more pics later.

Ok got it figured out, had to download the mobile app. More pics: Gauge cluster done by Matt at 12voltunlimited. Autometer Sport Comp 2 programmable gauges. I'm running Sanderson conversion headers and Curtis over at SNL Performance did an excellent job fabricating a full 3" stainless exhaust from the header collectors on back. He even hooked me up with a hi flow cat designed for turbo cars so I wouldn't have any issues with the state inspection. He used a magnaflow muffler and it sounds unbelievable. Curtis also fabricated the air intake tube and ran it to my river raider snorkel.

Same here, fuel and headers up next... I am especially thankful you guys diagnosed and correcting my cam issue. I was starting to second guess the whole motor swap being worth it with the way it first ran.
