Something Different: 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer Sleeper

[Invective]

I really liked these back in the day, despite their horrible reputation. Chrysler Jeep dealer in Texas took a 51k original mile example and installed a Hellcat drivetrain and are asking $128k for it.

The "392" engine/transmission would also make a great conversion. It would be more tractable and drivable around town. The Hellcat conversion has too much power for a good driving highway/town vehicle. Hellcat would be nice for drag racing if able to put power to track, would take Wide Drag Radials and something to keep rear end tracking under hard acceleration. Both are great engines and can make lots of power thru tuning and exhaust work.

All this 707 this and 707 that. How about a dyno on a swap such as this??

Pretty cool swap!
With those skinny ass radials it won't be good for anything but huge smoky tire spinning shows.
