The engine bay on the new 3.6L wrangler is CRAMPED! I was looking at one - even with the hood cover removed it's pretty cramped. And the alternator is mounted ahead of the engine, backwards. Not sure why.
Not a huge fan of the integrated head/manifold.
Alternator mounted high for water clearance. Also it's SUPER easy to change like it should be.
