I know.. hate to be a ars but kids gotta learn somehow.. as they say... spare the rod and spoil the child... or something close to that.. so i figure we all did this kid a favor... go ahead guys .. give yourselves a pat on the back. Spoiled kids... not on our watches

I would just like to add that the SRT8 has a 6.1 not a 5.7

That is all

Srt8s are cool in their own aspect, but fyi the parts are expensive and they are slow as hell for what they are.

An ls motor is cheaper and would be faster, or an lq9 6.0.

Stop all the thread bashing if you have nothing to add.
This XJ is said to have a 6.1L SRT8 in it, so it obviously will fit in a ZJ as well.

Hate or intelligence? If you want to talk power, weight, cost. There are better options.
