Jeep Cherokee SBC Swap! Hey guys, I have been kicking around the idea of swapping in a early 90s chevy SBC into my Jeep Cherokee. I wanted to keep the fuel injection. I was thinking of a TBI 350 or 305 or even a Vortec motor.
I looked over at Novak and Advance Adapters and they have most of the swap stuff as far as fitment, but I was wondering about the wiring.
Does anybody have any info on this type of conversion or wiring needs et cetera. Thanks guys

Ask the people that sell the conversions. As far as making it run all you would need is a harness and ECU from what ever the motor your going to use came from, if your going to use TBI get a pre 95 truck harness and ECU, if your using a Vortec get a 96+ truck harness and ECU. The fun part will be getting your gauges to work, just keep all the jeep sensors and use those, you'll have to use the chevy sensors too though for the ECU.
