Ok, so I was reading through some of the other stroker threads and I need some help.
First off, I have a 1990 limited with the 4.0L and as far as I know it is the original engine. Its been runing great but I was thinking of having it rebuilt/tuned up as preventative maintenence and so I dont have any problems this summer as I plan to make some longer trips to do some mountain biking, so I figured that it may as well be stroked if its being rebuilt.
I WILL NOT be the one doing the work on the engine. I dont have time and I'm rather automotive mechanically handicapped. The people doing it are reputible and I had them do my last engine on my other jeep as well.
So what I need to know is are the kits that are available out there basically "drop in" kits. I guess "drop in" isnt the right phrase, but what I mean is that the parts needed are included right?
What is the best way to figure out which route to go in order to get the most hp/tq and fuel economy?
When you stroke an engine is the fuel type changed. I believe I've heard that different stroker kits require premium or something. I'm not sure.
Like I said, with automotive mechanics I'm slow. If you guys could try to understand what I'm trying to ask and help me out a bit that would be great.
Thanks alot.
