Are you sure it is a clevland??? Windsors fit but are tight due to the elevated deck height. I am sure the Clevland is the same way except that they are a lot harder to find and most of them aren't cheap.

The exaust will be fun and you may have to swap in a smaller steering shaft, but other than that it will be no differnet than any v8 swap.

Well my unlcle put a cleveland into his Willys, so I'm sure you could make it work. Personally I'd stick with the windsor engines as they are a little more swap friendly.

I think it will also be a little wider than a windsor.

You really don't need a top end motor in your 4X4. I am thinking that it is a midland motor since the small blocks weren't factory in those years. You don't want that motor.
