Awwww, don't give up so easy. Is your eclipse a fwd or awd, i think if it was awd, it could happen.......the jeep thing is a bolt in, they make adapters, special radiators, trans mount etc, it would be easier than the Eclipse.

Well the jeep would be fast! Google up adapters or trans adapt, i have been on their site and they have trans and motor mount solutions. There is a guy on ebay that sell alum. radiators made for the ls1 in a jeep, and they are reasonable. Try a search here, i have seen the info on here recently. Good Luck, keep us posted.
