Micahmanche6946 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Hello, I'm new on here. I’ve had my 1990 pioneer 4.0 for about 6 years now. It currently has 243,000 miles on it. Engine blows and leaks oil everywhere so I took the entourage of a 1991 yj that runs great. If anyone could help me it would be greatly appreciated. I know it’s possible because almost every thing is. What I would like to know is if it’s easy and worth it. I have basic knowledge but never have swapped an engine or even replaced one. thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiNi Beast Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Replace long block and bolt on your accessories and brackets. Send it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micahmanche6946 Posted April 13, 2020 Author Share Posted April 13, 2020 This is sad. I’m not even sure which one is the long bock. Thanks for responding. I’ll do some research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdog Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Long block is the block and the head So the complete engine. I would switch the intakes and exhaust to make it easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiNi Beast Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Yes 4.0 is same. Motor mounts will be different. Fly wheel be same if same trans otherwise swap that as well. Intake and exhaust varies if you had a h.o. version. Which you shouldn't. Your alt bracket and and ac brackets varies so best to keep yours. Best is replace block with head still attached. With it torn apart though be best time to reseal everything and replace rear main seal as well. Water pump may be different as well so double check that. If not in a rush take time do it right and clean things up and replace maintenance things as needed and to ensure good life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
