My 2001 developed a loud knock (bottom end) so I'm rebuilding it to a 4.5 (top end remains stock but new) and all new cooling. The previous owner had an Edge Trail Jammer chip / kit installed which remains in place today.
So I guess my questions are:
1. How do I determine if upgraded injectors are a good idea for this stroker build?
2. Is this installed chip helpful, harmful, or doesn't matter for the stroker build?
3. Could the chip somehow have contributed to the development of the knock?
Any experience, opinions or advice would be helpful.
Thanks!
Addition rig specs (incase this is helpful):
- 35 inch tires
- 4.56 gears
- snorkle (I'm wondering how well a jeep can really breathe through these)
- some sort of throttle body spacer
- K&N air filter
- stock auto-trans
- stock transfer case
