    Need some advice. I have a 1963 cj 5 with f head and a 4 speed tranny. I ran across a V 6 Dauntless still in it's cj. It has a 3 speed. The jeep is a wreck but the engine has been rebuilt. I can pick it up for around 650. I would like to pull the V 6 and put it in my 63 with my 4 speed. Will this be an easy swap? I would then save the remaining drivetrain for parts. I am concerned the newer model will not bolt to my 4 speed. Has anyone made this swap?
