My cj5 has a rear from a cj3A with the 5.38 gears and twin stick swapped in. I get out on the street in second and that 283 buzzsaws i don’t care about that engine if it blows to pieces I’ll swap in another cheapo.True story: My father bought a CJ-5 in the 80's with a 350 SB and a wild AF cam in it, it would barely idle. He engine swapped it with a Gremlin, put the AMC straight 6 in it. Then he painted it with house paint. Most bat-sh!t Jeep story ever.
Just break my whole foot pushing that pedal through the floor on that cj5 and the little 283 just won’t let go
