I agree! Although based on the engine bay pics, I think that Mopar kit is the revised Burnsville kit. Which makes sense because Mopar usually outsources kits and accessories of this nature.
According to Burnsville's website, that kit is designed to be fully bolt-in (no cutting or welding of engine mounts), will pass European import requirements, and is about to undergo CARB testing.
I'm excited to get more information!

Awwww ya!
Mopar also rolled out two different versions of Hemi-powered Wranglers. The Wrangler Apache from Mopar packs a 6.4-liter Hemi V-8 under the hood, sending 470 hp and 470 lb-ft to all four wheels. The best part? The Hemi Wrangler conversion kit goes on sale this summer, initially only for the five-speed automatic, but later also for the six-speed manual. Mopar Pro 60 5.13 front and rear axles, a lift kit, and off-road bead-lock wheels have been added for additional off-road prowess, along with high-clearance fenders, half-door kits, a Stinger front bumper, and a winch.
Awwww ya!

I doubt it will be included in production vehicles. I assume that it's going to remain a dealer sold kit, much like the JK-8 pickup conversion kit or the lift kits they currently sell. BUT I'm glad Chrysler/Mopar has blessed this kit and will make it available. I will be more inclined to purchase a complete conversion kit from Mopar than any other producer.
