Not to mention performance parts for a 5.7L non-LS are super cheap and budget .
Going to a 4.8/5.3/6.0 would mean replacing budget it would cheap swap for a v8.
Its a fuel injected v8 that is a MUCH simpler swap.

With all this, then take your Jeep to a *Jeep* dealer as they will really know what needs to be done to fix your ride.

I knew you would do it one day is the exact same as used on the Jeep inline 6 though....
