a. DO NOT use the throttle body screws that come with the 6.4L engine. ONLY use the screws sup-

plied with the AEV intake. FAILURE TO USE THE CORRECT SCREWS WILL BREAK THE INTAKE MANI-

FOLD AND VOID YOUR AEV WARRANTY.

b. 6.4L engines ONLY—use a 2–3” section of heater core hose to connect the crank vent tube to the

engine.

27. Pre-assemble AEV coolant bottle and install. Will need to re-use the original coolant bottle tube and

cap from the factory coolant bottle. Use only MOPAR Coolant for your model year Jeep. DO NOT mix

coolant from different model years. Other brands may harm the seals or cause cooling problems.

28. Trim and install engine cover. 5.7L HEMI V8 conversions can utilize either a Grand Cherokee or Com-

mander engine cover—however, it will need to be modified prior to installation using the template pro-

vided at the end of these instructions. For 6.4L HEMI V8 conversions, you can utilize the Grand Cherokee

engine covers, but the driver’s side will require modification.

For 6.4L HEMI V8 engines, please remove the highlighted portion as shown in figure 45. For 5.7L

HEMI V8 engines, please use the template on the last page.
