Nope.

Good thing, too, because if it did it MIGHT last 15 seconds behind that engine.

After further "net research" I figured that out. What would be a good choice for a 4 or 5 speed? I really like the "no hassel" of a stick shift.

I have a toqueflight 727 auto, but I dont wanna use it.

is it an amc 360 or mopar 360?

the transmissions from an inline 6 xj would work with the amc 360 but i think the only one that would hold up would be the nv35xx or the aw4(which is out of the question since you want a manual)

if you find a bellhousing for a SR-4/T-4 it will work with a T-5 from a ford. and you should be able to find a ford truck with a T-5/trannycase pretty cheap they are a dime a dozen. IIRC advanced adapters or novak makes a kit to adapt the 231 to the T-5

if your going mopar 360 id say go with a NV4500

either swap will not be done cheaply IMHO

T18, used in the J trucks and SJ's..... but I suppose you went through and read everything already at the link I sent and know that already. :moon: Really just call Eric at Novak and he'll set you up and won't sell you anything you don't need, he's good like that.

Its an AMC 360 from a Jeep J10.

cool tell me what you use for engine mounts, when my 4.0 goes i want to put an amc 360 in it.

for stick trannys id say you really cant go wrong with a WCT5 use the bellhousing from the SR-4/T4, the ford T5 should have a passenger side drop T-case im just not sure which ones work with it. but i know AA makes an adapter for the 231 to fit the T5

those bellhousing can be found in some cj's and also older amc cars

np435 4 speed? novak has a 23 spline shaft to work with 91+ jeep NP231/242 transfer cases

also make sure it is a 2wd or a divorced 4wd if it is a np435 it also shares the same bolt pattern as a t18/t150/t176 so any jeep bellhousing from a 76-86 amc inline 6 or v8 with those bellhousing should work with it.
