The end result would be just under 400 horsepower and just over 400 pound-feet of torque, which was probably more than I needed but certainly a nice insurance policy to have when towing my Datsun through the mountains of New Hampshire on the way to the race track.With the engine issue solved—or so I thought—it was time to turn to the supporting players. Asked by bushy49 Feb 01, 2012 at 09:39 PM about the 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer Question type: Car Customization Has anyone got ideas about installing a 6.1 Hemi in a 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer The thought that I could have selected a cheaper, higher-mileage motor and done the same refresh has entered my mind more than once, joined by the offers of guaranteed LS engines from friends after they learned of my predicament.Still, I’m staying the course, and truth be told, I’m still quite excited about the entire thing. Initially, I had been targeting the older LM7 version of the 5.3-liter, liking its balance of respectable horsepower and relatively frugal fuel consumption versus the similarly-priced 6.0-liter V-8s. A few things required more significant changes, like the Vintage Air setup replacing the stock HVAC system, and converting the brakes to hydraulic boost from vacuum. Given that LS engines don’t feature balance pads, and that rods are installed as a balanced set rather than individually balanced themselves, I was looking at substantial machine work to ensure the condition of the crank, the harmony of the new rods, and the honing of the cylinders to go with the new rings and bearings we might as well do at the same time. of torque produced by the Hemi are routed through a modified TorqueFlite 727 three-speed automatic transmission, which helps to retain the factory transfer case.

Adapting the stock New Process 229 transfer case to the GM engine and transmission was possible, but expensive, and required a bespoke adaptor. The Grand Wagoneer comes with a TF727 3 speed auto. Unfortunately, getting that to bolt to the 4BT was going to be an effort that wouldn't be worth the cost.

I also sent the engine wiring harness and ECU out to Washington’s Easy EFI Solutions to have it thinned and reprogrammed to function in the prehistoric, sensor-free AMC environment ($450).
