Is the 2.5 that mopar used in the late 80s and ealry 90s the same one we have in our jeeps. May be a stupid question, but I am finding these car guys making some really nice numbers and I got jealous. and wanted to kno if they were working the same motor I have in the driveway. Thanks Mike

That's a Chrysler 2.5L not an AMC 2.5L. Completely different.

Right, Chrysler didn't start using the amc 2.5 in anything but the dakotas till around 96' with the "2.5 magnum". The earlier ones were totally different and nothing will interchange. Sorry ;)

What a crying shame!
-
Amazing to see them get 500hp from a 2.5L engine, wish we a vendor like this for Jeep engines.
-
on thier website they say that they do other things then what is listed and that they are always trying to fit the "our", THE ENTHUSIASTS, needs. so i am going to call them today and see if i cant persuade them to start making me a head assemply for my 2.5 equevelant to the enforcer 1. I wil report back if I get anywhere. Mike

I'd just like to have around 200lbs-ft of torque and I can live with the low hp.
Did you ever seen Hot Rod Magazine's 2.5L Iron Duke build years ago? I think it was pushing 4-500HP. Then there was the Cosworth Project DB (Super Duty 4) although not huge on HP it had a lot of torque.
J.P. Offroad Sponsored Jeep had one in it.
"Power for the lightweight rock warrior comes from a fuel-injected Pontiac Motorsports Super Duty 151 Iron Duke that has been bored & stroked to a robust 200 C.I. Equipped with Chevy LT-1 Corvette rods, and Keith Black forged aluminum pistons, the Duke pumps 145 Dyno'd horsepower and 250 ft. lbs. of torque through a 700R4 slushbox, complete with a custom built converter."
