"Welcome, cool setup! Someday I would like to do a 4BT swap in something maybe even the 6BT, can't wait to check the thing out!!!!"
Thank you. Due to the simplicity of the engine the swap is easier then would be thought. It is a heavy engine though so the suspension has to be taken into consideration. The 4BT is just over 700lbs. It's also a little taller, taller then the 4.0 I6 that comes in Jeeps anyway. In some cases a modest lift is needed to make some room. The 6BT is a monster on its own but it's the same engine as the 4BT just two more cylinders and almost 300lbs heavier. If you can sort out the logistics of a 6BT swap and need to tear houses from their foundations from time to time then it's worth looking into.
