EPIC 392 Engine Conversion - America's Most Wanted 4x4 - Project Complete!

the engine that pickup should have come with

[@EPIC-4WD]

Now that we are driving it... totally agree it should be an OE engine option ;-)

[@nicholasbaldwin1674]

@@EPIC-4WD yeah just amazing they put in the JLU but not the JT which is a truck, trucks need V8. I mean all JLU should have it also, but truck should have been the obvious go to.

[@EPIC-4WD]

@@nicholasbaldwin1674 Agreed!

[@nguyenhuynh9806]

That’s a guy funny

[@patriotreno6279]

That's a beautiful moving moment when that engine goes in

[@seancalcote6634]

Pink safety croc's are a nice touch.😆

[@dancameron8354]

Hopefully my gladiator is nearing 392 install completion. Awesome shop and employees in Holly Michigan. Thanks for the great video.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Awesome Dan! You're gonna love it! Cheers!

[@ericjacobs4156]

That add up to more $$ than the $80K++ it’d likely be from factory?

[@sunnymann234]

Good job Ginger congratulations for the first gladiator done 🎉

[@calverleslie3385]

As a mechanic, I love the video I’m thinking about getting one to do the same

[@frontierstateoverland3816]

That is a CLEAN install! You guys do great work!

[@EPIC-4WD]

Thank you! It really did turn out OE looking. Thanks for following along! Cheers!

[@matthewharper9797]

Maybe one day I'll be able to do this. Love it!!

[@EPIC-4WD]

It's a bucket-list item for sure. Awesome to drive.

[@christopherporter4561]

This is a very well done installation. I want a engine like that:)...

[@paulbaker2680]

Awesome job! Glad to see more shops doing the installs. I have the AMW 5.7 in my Gladiator and love it!!

[@EPIC-4WD]

Awesome Paul! Thanks for following along! Cheers!

[@sacredshogun6325]

You Ginger bearded man, I LOOOOOOOVE IIIIIIIIT !!!!! I want one for my JTR. You have done an AMAZING job.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Thanks for following along Javier! Cheers from EPIC!

[@Danj1095]

Just looked up AMW, I can only dream about buying a swap like this. Great work guys! Can't wait to see you do it with the 426

[@gogerwi]

That's kick ass, you guys made it look easy.

[@stevenwall3604]

Hell ya great video. Can't wait to pick up my 426 supercharged wrangler 😁

[@EPIC-4WD]

Hells to the yes. We are building a 426 Wrangler this year. Should be a blast!

[@matthewpeterson2471]

Keep up the great work!!!

[@EPIC-4WD]

Thanks Matthew! We are certainly trying over here! Cheers from the EPIC team.

[@CasualWeekends]

Ok.. can u guys please teleport to Greece ? Dammm.. what a job ! My respect 🫡🤘🏻👏🏻

[@EPIC-4WD]

Thanks for following along! Never exported to Greece before, but we bet it would be hella costly! ;-) Cheers from Canada!

[@StartBuildingYourDreams]

Love watching these builds!

[@erikdiazramon6547]

Holy shit, that turned out like a star war movie🤣🤣🤩fantastic

[@Lionshead0810]

LOVE IT!! when can we start having you all do this to our Jeeps? I'm just 2 hours south of you guys in Washington and would love to talk about logistics!

[@billkowske5978]

LOVE IT! Great job fellas. How is this not available from the factory? Travesty! Sounds great. I want one.

[@chucksrchabit.7671]

You got that right. If jeep would build this I’d trade my 392 wrangler in tomorrow.

[@illusionz1]

Love it! I have Cherokee SRT with the 392, second best decision ever! My best decision... Can you swap a hellaphant into it? 👀 Or know someone who will?

[@jeffreybetts8014]

Nice job, thanks for sharing 😀

[@EPIC-4WD]

Thanks for following along Jeffrey! Appreciated! Cheers!

[@4estadventureclub]

That’s pretty awesome! 🤘🏻

[@EPIC-4WD]

And we thank you Mr Puffer! Cheers from the EPIC Team.

[@WestCoastMan8]

Man I want the AMW 1000 but focusing on other things right now. I hope these units are still for sale in 15 years (and you guys still installing) with all this EPA stuff. If so, I’ll be signing up for one from you guys haha

[@TheEPICBeardedGinger]

Me too 🎉

[@SumGuy255]

Now that’s a bad ass truck kinda wish the gladiators had the option from factory to upgrade to the V8.

[@blakemarchand6650]

Dream truck

[@EPIC-4WD]

It is a dream to drive - that's for sure! Cheers!

[@jayfoster5756]

Great (I mean EPIC) videos! With such a thirsty engine, wouldn't it be a good idea to add a larger (or auxillary) fuel tank while the body is off of the chassis?

[@EPIC-4WD]

You'd think... but there is zero room for an additional tank ;-)

[@TheRightLine]

I want one. Someday.

[@thomaskrutulis2289]

Cost start to finish with and without tcase plz. I’m buying a jt and haven’t decided rubicon or mojave. Prob rubicon. Thx also, can you supply engine or we have to source

[@KrazyMitchAdventures]

Fluffy got the 6.4 Hemi, so Khan is getting the HellCat? I'm looking at a 4.3L V6, my paycheck can't afford the gas

[@Casey250]

It was awesome to drive, but no one truly likes a 'base package' :D

[@bdmski]

What’s the backstory? Too much boost with the Ripp supercharger and high altitude pulley on the previous 3.6?

[@EPIC-4WD]

That it most certainly is! Cheers from the team at EPIC!

[@bdmski]

@ thank you for the heads up, I will be sure to stick with the stock pulley then!

[@roncua6900]

I would be down to drive to Canada for a 3.6 to 392 swap 😊

[@mazevx2451]

At least the 5,7 should be a factory option for wrangler and gladiator

[@EPIC-4WD]

Agreed! However they didn't and now we have to do it for them ;-)

[@PiperBlush]

This is a "big" motor !

[@EPIC-4WD]

Oh, it's a big one! Thanks Piper! Cheers!

[@PiperBlush]

@@EPIC-4WD We should collab ;-)

[@PiperBlush]

This channel could use more girls lol

[@mr.volleyball13]

Great channel and content. I have to paint some corrections on my Gladiators frame. Noticed you use VHT chases paint. You use gloss or the Satin? Your work blends well, hoping for the same level of colour match.

[@EPIC-4WD]

We always use the VHT Chasis paint in Satin ;-)

[@Pierce0420]

Is this a service you provide at your shop?

[@larryb7047]

I'm curious if it's possible/reasonable to convert the Gladiator bed to a dump bed? What would that cost?

[@davidcooper3957]

Awesome

[@Menlo40]

Man! I have a 2020 JT Rubicon Gladiator and seriously thinking of swapping to a bigger engine. V6 is just not meant to be in a JT. Roughtly what does the parts and labor total to for the 6.2L 392?

[@joerivs80]

So how much money should I save up to buy a gladiator and put this motor in it?

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

What did you guys do with the 3.6? I need one..I'm close to Vancouver. Thanks

[@EPIC-4WD]

We blew the bottom end of the 3.6L with a supercharger. You can't supercharge these 3.6Ls... we found out the hard way so others don't have to lol ;-) A friend picked it up and he's gonna rebuild it.

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

@@EPIC-4WD thanks. Got a Pacifica with a bad cylinder. With the exchange rate I figured you'd give me $500 for it. Keep them coming...

[@brentferrer4687]

How do you become a certified installer?

[@EPIC-4WD]

You have to attend the AMW4x4 facility in Michigan for a few weeks to get trained up.

[@bc1953]

how much that swap cost and all?

[@UnwindingRoads]

I'll save the dad yolks for later.

[@EPIC-4WD]

Ha Ha Teddy! Ha HA!

[@EPIC-4WD]

Turn-Key Gladiator with the 392 is around $160k Canadian. Suspension, wheels, tires included.

[@raffaeleiuliano4339]

How much for the whole thing ?

[@DHFHize]

supercharger?

[@theone4042]

It’s good you broke the engine in slowly 😂

[@TheEPICBeardedGinger]

Hey hey, I never went above half throttle till AMW4x4 gave me the okay 👍🏻
