    Woould a dauntles:v6: bolt right into the fhead mounts and the t90 that was behind the fhead. Its for a 62 cj5. I found a killer deal on a dauntless and am triing to deside how hard it would be to do.:v6:

    Not sure about how it would bolt to your T90 but, im pert sure that you will need new motor mounts welded on your frame. Im sure someone with more experance than I will chime in.

    No, the v6 will not bolt into the f-head mounts, totally different, battery will also have to be moved (I think). You will also have to have the t90 adapter to fit the v6 bellhousing. Its a very doable swap and worthwhile but its not a direct bolt in by any means.
