The isuzu 4cyl engines would be crap for a Jeep. The 4cyl engines that came in the cab over trucks came mostly in the NPR's which were relatively light duty city trucks, the Isuzu NPR's were pretty problematic especially the transmissions that mounted to them. The Isuzu NRR cab over trucks came with an Isuzu 6cyl and is a much better set up. But with either one you are talking about a really complicated swap, and won't be getting great HP numbers, not to mention the greatly increased weight and having to find a home for the pretty big intercoolers that you would need to run. There really is not much of an aftermarket for these engines so performance upgrades would have to be home fabbed. I do know that the NPR 4cyl engines are not very friendly for mods and have a tendency to burn themselves up when you try to do something as simple as eliminate the blow off valve which would keep the engine under boost all the time.
As for the cummins 4B engines, they are pretty big, and the ones that make the most power are usually used in industrial or marine applications, which if your state does diesel emssions testing or will be in the near future, you are very likely to fail. There are TONS of 4 cyl diesel engines out there, turbo, non turbo made by everyone from Cummins, Deutz, Ruggerini, Lister Petter, Hatz, Kubota, Isuzu, Mitzubishi, Yanmar, Mercedes, VW, etc Its just that many of them are Large, heavy, and designed to be run at a constant RPM and last a long time so the power that they make may not be a huge improvement. Thats the problem I have run into, I am trying to build a Diesel minibike, and I have a brand new ruggerini single cyl engine, but the injection pump is either full throttle, or off. But I like the idea of working with diesels, its just a matter of someone out there finding a combination that will provide enough power gains to offset the cost of doing the fab work, and the steep price.
