as soon as my jeep Lj is old enough to not have to get plugged in for emissions i will be doing a cool swap or going all out in building a badass 4.0 with a 6 speed, manual or auto

Please keep us posted on this 6 speed auto you’d put behind a 4.0!
Pssst.
Jeremy did the swap already! That's where I got the the needful urge to need and want a 6r80! image how fun it'll be to just bang gears in a high comp. N/a Or turbo 4.0 around the streets
Just need the money ofcourse
if anything I'll forsure do that tranny swap before an engine swap, cause I will be putting that tranny in someday!Edit- I can't spell....
I see why you got one 
10 speed tranny too
,imagine that thing deleted and tuned! That thing would rip in a jeep

I didn't even pay that much for this one.
Wow !
I think that's a pretty good price but if you got it for alot less that's awesome !

Wow sub $2k for engine + trans? That sounds like perfect swap potential.
That's a problem far far off in the distance. The odds of getting the Duramax running and able to work in the Wrangler are far from good. I can't even connect to the ECM right now as it doesn't have direct communication to the data link connector. So my first list of parts so far are: Serial Data Module, Pedal Position Sensor, Mass Air Sensor, Fuel Pump Module, Fuel Pump and Fuel Filter-Water Seperator-Fuel Heater Assembly. It will also need a tune that costs $700+ just for the credits.
Are there aftermarket controllers that will fire a diesel injector? Might not run as well as stock but a bunch of junk could be eliminated.
What do you mean 700$ in credits? Is this hp tuners?

Probably? I can honestly say I know nothing when it comes to modern diesels.
Hp Tuners has support for the E46 PCM, but little to no additional information. It is 6 credits and the PCM has to go to them to be unlocked which is another $400 iirc.
You effectively need to pay a license fee to HP Tuners for every individual ECU to which you connect for the purpose of loading a tune. I believe you can data log without a license - but I’m not certain.
Credits are $50 each and different models require different amounts of creadit.
Now Jeff needed 2 credits to tune his 5.7 Hemi where I only needed 1 credit to tune my 5.9 Magnum V-8.
You can also pay for tuning on some newer transmission.

Before you do all that you also have to have bought a MPVI 2+ or MPVI3 to use the HPTuner software and tuning abilities.

I spent a week out in East Tennessee at the Windrock OHV area putting the LJ through its paces. Here are some of the highlights.
That turbo whine in the mud is something to aspire to!
