In this video we bring life back into a friends project CJ-7 that has been sitting for nearly 20 years awaiting a early LS swap (Vortec 5.7 350) that only needed some finishing touches to get back up and running. In order to get it ready for its first start, we had to completely rewire the engine harness with the ecu wiring and all of the engine systems in this v8 swap jeep. After that we had to completely replace this CJ's fuel system in this junkyard motor swap to make sure the fuel pump was regulated properly and functioning in perfect order. After that we had to replace the spider fuel injection system and check for spark and she fired right up! Be sure to stay tuned for future episodes of this thing finally driving and cruising down the road.
