![]() Also, a Chevy 305 or 350 will bolt right to the Iron duke bell housing. A regular Chevy bell housing will bolt to the 151, so if you plan a transmission swap, a Chevy transmission would be the way to go. The bell housing makes a great low buck Ford/Jeep to Chevy adapter since it is basically Ford on the transmission side and Chevy on the engine side. The neat part about the engine is it has the same bell housing bolt pattern as a Chevy small block. The 151 cetainly is not a screamer, the AMC I4 has much better HP and torque ratings. The engine is manufactured by GM and uses a cast iron block and cylinder head with hydraulic lifters and 5 main bearings. The engine does have the Chevy bell housing bolt pattern though. The 151 is often called the "Iron Duke", but is actually a Pontiac engine designed to replace the Chevy "Iron Duke" I4 engine. The 151 (2.5L) inline 4 engine was used in '80-'83 CJs including the CJ-8, CJ-7, and CJ-5.
