its real easy for you that don't have a clue it costs more to build a jeep engine than ford or chevy due to sheer numbers of parts produced, but then most people that build engines build a dragster engine for the trail is that ever freakin smart

I don't feel the need to argue with you on the matter. Either way what ever you decide to build up can cost you nothing or can kill your bank account. By volume Jeep has a huge aftermarket, But on the other hand Ford and Chevy have both made parts for Jeeps since the Second World War. And I do see alot of small blocks and 302's in Jeeps CJ5 CJ6 and so on all can be fabricated to fit. Just on what you want

But gearing can more than make up for the horse power that a 350 has

no #### a 4.0 can touch a 350 a 350 is a 5.7 now if you said a 351 cant touch a 350 then you would be makeing a good statment wile it maybe or may not be true it makes a whole lot more sence just cuz there in the same class... i dont think you have said one smart thing yet you seem like a dumbass from where i sit.

with the right gearing a 4.0 could easily "touch" a 350

nope a 4.0 can not "touch" a 350 with anykind of gearing if that was the case why did GM (or any motor company for this matter) make the 350 or anything over a 4.0 or around that. why dont cars have 50cc motors in them it would cost less to run.... O YEAH THERE IS NO WAY YOU CAN GEAR TO MAKE UP FOR LACK OF POWER!!!!
sure gearing helps but if you compair one truck with a 4.0 with the best gearing possable and another truck (same truck) with avrage gearing the 350 will wipe the 4.0 away why shouldnt it its a 5.7 vs. a 4.0
gearing is great and can make a motor do much better ... but a bigger motor and gearing will...start to break everything else

Not to but in but a 4.0 has as much if not more toque than a 5.7 chevy and that makes more difference than hourse power.

no it cant look at the numbers. http://www.jeep.com/vehiclecompare/global.sessionid=Compare32633F7A356C636CFF01060256540000/OptionDetails.jam
that is the specs on the jeep 4.0
Legendary Jeep 4.0L Power Tech I-6 engine produces 190 horsepower at 4,600 RPM with 235 pounds-feet of torque at 3200 RPM
(taken directly from jeep.com)
now everyone knows that a 350 has over 310 horse power and over 310 foot pounds of torque.
chevys 4.3 motor has @ 4600 rpm.
260 lb.-ft. of torque @ 2800 rpm
195 horsepower
thats more that your JEEP and thats chevys 4.3 (also a 6 cylinder)
so i was right you were not and im 16... now how do you feel
