Is is possible to swap a 242 L6 4.0L Jeep engine into a 1987 AMC Eagle with a 258 L6 4.2L engine?
With some modification it could be done The blocks are nearly the same. If you use the 258 intake and distributor in the 4.0; the only part that will need modifying is the exhaust from the manifold. I did one in a weekend using a 727 from a 91 wagoneer and a 02 4.0 engine. I used the 258 intake, carb, and distributor. I used the old v belt system to make it easy. It's easier to mod up an engine that's already running than making it work later.
How do you swap a Jeep 258 for a Chevy V8?
You have to use the bell housing from a Chevy "IronDuke" engine that was used in the jeep cj's for a few years. It will allow you to bolt a Chevy 350 engine inline with the ford t90 transmission. The Iron Duke was the Chevy engine used "Before" the amc designed their own 4 cylinder which used another bell housing that WILL NOT work for your purpose. Good Luck in changing out your engines and finding that bell housing, it's very hard to find one!
