Phoenix engines in JK
Found this info today... Looks like engine info was updated yesterday. I'm not sure how trustworthy this site is, but it's a good read.

Update: the Scrambler appears to have been completely dropped; the Wrangler will get the new Phoenix engine but not a four cylinder.
On December 3, 2008, Chrysler confirmed that the Phoenix engine plants in Trenton and Saltillo, Mexico will be the only sources of the Phoenix engine. Early production is scheduled for summer 2009 with “real” production starting in late 2009.

And if you go here: http://www.allpar.com/mopar/phoenix-engines.html it states that this will be the motor in the Wrangler.

Interesting info. I wonder if they will leave it in current layout for the Wrangler or if the Wrangler and Ram versions will be different than the car versions.... I think they will probably be a little different.
