Hi, Haithem,
Both JSC and V8 running through the chromium tree, so you could try that.
 If you run the "test_shell", its pretty much just a shell for driving the
webkit engine, and it works with both JS engines.
You can find more information here for how to build it:
http://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/getting-around-the-chrome-source-code

Basically there are two visual studio projects; one builds JSC (chrome_kjs)
and the other is just chrome.

If you have any trouble, drop me an email.

Mike
