Was wondering how many people would be interested in a hellcat engine for your Jeep. Is it something you would buy?

Rather get a 5.7L. A solid 375 hp and 450 ft/lbs would be really nice. No forced induction or complexity required,Was wondering how many people would be interested in a hellcat engine for your Jeep. Is it something you would buy?
40k for the swap. Nah. Speed isn't my goal on the trail. And re-gearing for torque has worked for a thousand years.

The tranny and brakes would obviously need to be upgraded, but the rest of what you listed would be unnecessary for a mall crawler. Anyone who wants to do serious wheeling would already be pondering the other upgrades. Dana 44s are probably stronger than what gets put in most vehicles that get mated with the hellcat. For my purposes, a 5.7l would be ideal.I would...but only if you upgrade like 9 other things so I don't die.
HD shafts, HD suspension, HD brakes, D60s, maybe HD D44s would work, trans and transfer case, because stock would last about 1/8 of a mile, the next 1/8th would be you skidding down the road sparking while your wheels and axle shafts fly out of the jeep.
So yeah Basically an Ultra 4 Wrangler lol, with no stock factory parts
700 HP in a Wrangler will probably not end well, I would love to see it though
