Default 6.1l?

Since when can you pick up a JK with a 6.1L hemi? Is this a mod?

Default It's An Upgrade

THE HEMI CONVERSION IS AN UPGRADE BEING OFFERED BY SEVERAL COMPANIES BUT IMHO, BURNSVILLE OFF ROAD HAS DONE SOME OF THE BEST CONVERSIONS. YOU CHOULD CHECK THEM OUT!

Typing in all caps is considered "shouting" online and is considered very rude by most. Its also very annoying to read. Please turn your caps lock off. Thank you.

Oh great a post Nazi.

I have even seen one or two for sale (online) with the same conversion. The price goes way way up though.

Don't gang up fella's. He's not a Nazi - he's right. Typing IN ALL CAPS IS SHOUTING and a DUMB thing to do.

Some older people with Macular Degeneration find it quite useful to type in Caps, otherwise, they can't see thier own text..... Give folks the benefit of the doubt before chastising them...



At anyrate, who wants a Hemi when a Cummins Diesel for the JK may be just around the corner? Got MY fingers crossed anyways!

Uhm, yes. Big MOD. Lots of shops are doing it. Burnsville is the most well known I think, but there are a few others. A 5.7 HEMI upgrade will run you about $18K and a 6.1 will run $22k or more and then there's the 6.4 and the Viper V10...


Yea!

You must be rich to drop 30 big ones on a hunk of junk. I have some turds you can buy for half that amount!
If you wanted to spend that kind of money on a hunk of junk why didn't you purchase the H2 or H3?
