I have been wondering the same.... Bolt patterns look spot on, just not actually got round to checking.

yup they will bolt up. but I am not sure if you need to cut a hole in the bellhousing to allow for the cps from the cherry.

Hmm - I'm not so sure - time to google!!

Had a google, and so long as it's a Jeep sourced TH400, it will, but as Rob says, the CPS
will need relocating. Novak say it's a 1/2" hole needs to be drilled in the belhousing.

cool... thanks guys il have a look on the novac site.......

novak do a cps relocation kit but for all the cost and trouble its a lot easier to drill a hole and enlarge it to the correct shape to fit the cherry cps. make sure you use the cherry starter ring as well.

yes can be made to work i think the 4.0 has two extra holes but i dont think its a problem yup cps hole is needed i think advance adaptors can help

j33pky · « **Reply #9 on:** May 18, 2010, 07:47:21 AM »

no probs only fun dood thought you ran a v8

j33pky · « **Reply #11 on:** May 18, 2010, 05:20:30 PM »

hi bubba ...yea got a 360 in my cj5.. got a 360 with th400 and quadratrac for the offroader im building...just thought the 4.0ltr would be better for offroading as even the mighty holly truck avenger i have in my 5 doesn't like too steep a angle. still you cant beat the sound of a nice 360. just got a 7 with a rotten tub but got a lot of spares from it, a 85 lhd 304 auto with a 300 trans case, the engine needs striping as its been stood for about 7 year but its got a 4 barrel edelbrock intake and carb fitted (have i read somewhere that you have to upgrade the cam on the 304 to take the upgraded 4 barrel carb ect? or have i dreamt that?) so i will probably get rid of some stuff when i decide what I'm going to do but don't worry il put it on birtys first...wont be for a while anyway...

Dave The Sparky · « **Reply #12 on:** May 18, 2010, 09:20:58 PM »

woah there that 300 transfer case has my name on it and as for steep angle problems you know what to do.............................
But im afraid it involves installing a lovely diesel engine as they dont have fuel starvation problems.

ill get my coat

Bubba · « **Reply #14 on:** May 18, 2010, 09:43:11 PM »

if i had the cash i would go injection on the 360

Dave The Sparky · « **Reply #15 on:** May 18, 2010, 10:11:24 PM »

You sussed us out Bubba the guy sold it to a man from Holland and the buyer came all the way from the Netherlands with his trailer to take it away and on arrival asked where the log book was?
As no log book was forthcoming he got back in his car and went all the way back to Holland wasnt interested in the Jeep just the log book.

Still not sure what the guy selling it intended on making though but hiding underneath all that hideousness were the remnants of a CJ7 with a 304.

Bubba · « **Reply #16 on:** May 18, 2010, 10:20:22 PM »

thort so it looked worth buying to normalise it or part it out good luck with it you pair are gonna be way busy

Hey monkey features my diesel powered cj6 is both taxed and tested which is more than can be said for your "garaged" vehicle. How many miles has yours done so far this year??? about 0.0001 i think.
Yours must be the most economical vehicle on this forum judging by how much petrol its used so far this year.
Poor thing wont know whats hit it when its getting abused at Kirton next weekend but must admit it will be nice to see it out and about again that Bronco was just a waste of time.(mainly mine wiring the pigging thing

)
