When it comes to big horse power and torque, the kind that you really want when driving something like a Jeep JT Gladiator outfitted with EVO trailing arms and double throw down system over big whoops, nothing short of a V8 will give it to you. And, while a HEMI swap is the first thing that comes to most peoples minds, there is another option coming soon for the Wrangler JL and JT Gladiator and that is, a Motech Gen V LT V8! In this video, you'll get to see and learn more about what Cindy and I hope to have under the hood of our Gladiator and soon.

That is awesome. Definitely has me thinking. Also so encouraging to see someone like Kalan, in the younger generation, that is applying himself towards something beneficial and clearly has taken the time to learn a trade and do something with it. With my work in automotive, I haven't seen many at his age that really have a clue or even care to.

Couldn't agree with you more. Seems like kids today have ZERO interest in the automotive industry. Kalan is really a breath of fresh air and I love that he totally geeks out on this stuff. Between he and Robbie, I know our Jeep will be in good hands.

There will be some bad assery going on here can’t wait to see the end product. Kalen took me for a little ride in a LT4 JK it will definitely put a smile on your face .
I may have to drive to Vegas to check this one out 👍

Very cool, that mileage is insane. Obviously won’t translate at 20 mpg to 37s or 40s. But even with the expected loss, that’s gotta do better than the hemi. Looking fwd to seeing it all come together. I’d feel bad for you that you’ll be without your JT for a while, but you’ll be fine between, moby, pipi, oh and that 392 you have! Not to mention everything else..

LOL - that's about the only reason why we'd be okay with being down a Jeep for so long. Eager to make this happen and test it out :)

Very nice for sure Eddie!
The JT will be a monster with the LT4.
I have a LS3 in my YJ and would luv to have a LT1 in my JL.
When they make a CA legal package, I might have to get one. Or better yet move, lol..
