Nice threads, I have always wanted to rebuild a Jeep from the ground up. You know, resurrect it. I have actually see a beat up down trodden Jeep not far from my neighborhood. It looks late 80's/ early 90's has like wood paneling on the side of it? Not sure what it is, but it is just sitting in their backyard with flat tires and a tarp over. I have always thought of asking the owners about it. See what they would want for me to take it off their hands. It would take awhile to do it, but it would be worth it to see that Jeep like it was in its glory days.

Thats It! A Cherokee Wagoneer! I just looked up a picture of it. Now I am pretty sure thats what it is. That would be a great project. I dont think I have ever seen one of those on the road before!

you could also use the HO block and head, swap over all the renix sensors, the renix flexplate, and use the renix intake and exhaust manifolds, and gain a little bit of power, but not as much.
You could also try and use the HO intake and TB with the renix sensors, but you'll have a lot of trouble fitting the TPS.

you quite literally need to swap EVERYTHING over - engine, cooling system, dashboard, wiring harness, gauges, ECU, etc etc to get the full H.O. power. The renix system is completely different than the H.O. setup.
