That is the very first thing I would do before spending a cent is find out if an engineers cert is needed (which it almost certainly is), and make contact with an Approved Certifying Engineer to see what he will expect

A few guys from here have done it, there is a LS1 thread, but just from the list on your attached website, its a major and expensive task

The shitty wiring on these older Chrerokees is a somewhat scary thought for integrating a new powertrain
