We had a 1988 Jeep Cherokee and it took us to all the fishing lakes around us in a 150 mile radius. But the body rusted out and the transmission failed and the engine had countless issues. But we loved it for what it could do.

[@TwentytenS4B8]

4:58 Engine assembly is a little more than just torque spec and sequence although those are vital. Your bearing and piston clearances matter just as much if not more. Also piston ring end gap depending on your plans. You want to open them up if going with a power adder unless you like busted ring lands. And checking the end gap should be standard in any build unless you like blowby on a new engine. Too much crankshaft thrust clearance? You might end up driving over the crankshaft the first time you give it the beans. Just got your block back from the machine shop after a line hone and overbore? Check the clearances on the pistons and bearings. Never just assume all is copacetic. And don't spin the crankshaft until all the main caps are torqued to spec. The mains are not round until they are torqued and spinning the crank before the mains are torqued means you run the risk of scuffing the bearings and possibly the journals.

[@corymetzker818]

They actually did btw. That aside, those low reving straight sixes are MUCH more forgiving and actually thrive in slightly looser tolerances relative to newer or performance specs.

I am still baffled at jeeps decision to discontinue the 4.0L. It was like the cummins of the gasoline engine! Sounds great, awesome torque, would run forever if you dont EVER over heat them! Inline six......ok you get the point. Stock 4 liter is a good engine but the 4.6 like they are building here is just badass!! I have done a few over the years in YJ's and TJ's that had a blown 2.5L so we did the bigboy swap and man its amazing the difference and how happy our customers were. Believe it or not the swap is very simple to do also! Engine mounts are the only welding you need to do and those almost fall into place on their own! Cant wait to see what this engine puts out that they are building!!

[@billgates1682]

Poor efficiency.

[@sidneysanders5726]

Listen to the engine run, you can hear slight misfires not enough to trigger the misfire monitor to pop a DTC but enough to make it fail tighter 2007 emissions standards. Some 4.0Ls run smoother than others, sometimes even with rotor, cap, wires and plug replacements it still runs a little rough. And with that much raw fuel running through the cat, epa felt that it wont pass, the 3.8L V6 used in 2007 to 2010 ran smoother and had a little more horsepower, but the 4.0L was still superior.

[@mitchellpatterson1829]

One thing I should point out, they kept saying "Cherokee rods" and "Cherokee pistons" this WILL NOT WORK with a 258 crank. The 4.0 has a deck height of 9.45". If you use the 6.125 connecting rods on the 3.895" stroke of the 258 crank it will shove the piston about a quarter inch into the head. The 4.0 piston has a compressed height of 1.601" so you can either use the 258 connecting rods, which will increase your quench height, and make the engine sensitive to fuel, or get custom pistons with a +/- 1.3" compressed height. The second option maintains the total combustion volume, and lets you run the same fuel as a stock 4.0L.

[@UCMJ_Family_Law_Expert]

From less than 50 horsepower to a brand new motor. I can only imagine the difference for the owner.

[@rncboy2]

I tell people all the time when rebuilding any type of engine balancing the rod weights just like you guys stated and then balancing the crankshaft is the life of the engine and the oil is its blood. Without the first results in a short life for a engine then they tend to hate on companies and or machine shops when in reality it was the one who decided that rebuilding a engine was a good idea for their first time.

This was my thoughts. They could safely run 87 octane pump gas on 9.6:1 unless they planned on using a power adder in the future which almost always requires premium anyway regardless of compression ratio.

[@mitchellpatterson1829]

Really depends on the quench height too. You can get away with lower octane at higher compression with a tight quench. That can be difficult to do though mixing and matching parts for a stroker.

There is no difference between 9.3 and 9.6. From fuel perspective.

[@jacobvanhalteren7452]

@@juhomaki-petaja Depends on engine design. Certain cylinder head shapes or piston shapes can change where the hot spots are in the cylinder changing what fuel might need to be run. There's no real "use premium at this compression ratio and regular at this one". Every engine is different. An engine with a good cooling system might easily get away with 10:1 compression like the LT1 with reverse cooling where other engines with the exact same geometry (IE earlier small blocks with similar cam) would probably need premium to run 10:1. Smaller cam = lower compression or higher fuel grade since the compression is not being relived by cam overlap IE Dynamic compression.

[@v.e.7236]

A cam has no affect on CR? That's pre-determined by your choices in piston, combustion chamber size and gasket thickness, deck height, etc.

@@v.e.7236 there are 2 types of compression ratio 1. Static Compression Ratio - what most people think of and what you have described 2.

@@jacobvanhalteren7452 You may be confusing cylinder pressure w/ compression ratio.

So...what if your tolerances are not within spec? Is it back to the machine shop? Return your bearings?

[@TwentytenS4B8]

If the tolerances are off in the negative, then yes back to the machine shop. If they are positive well time for a new block. You can always take material off but you really can't put it back on. So if they hogged out your mains too much, you need to see if they have an oversize bearing to take up the difference. If not, the block is junk. Same with crankshaft journals. If they spec out too much in the negative and there is no oversize bearing, the crank is junk. Or it could be you ordered the wrong bearings. This is why it's important to check clearances even after getting a block back from the machine shop.

Your crank position sensor picks up signals from the reluctor wheel that is mounted on the crankshaft. So if the 4.2 crank has the same size reluctor and the same amount of teeth, you should be golden. Just make sure you time the crank and cam properly. This means you need to make sure you can mount the reluctor from the 4.0 crank on the 4.2 one.

[@revolutionday1]

Give Universal Technical Institute (UTI) or WyoTech a look.

[@jz9189]

@@revolutionday1 I agree with what he said. UTI was the shit.

[@RobertBreckenridge13]

Oklahoma condition Jeeps are hard to find in Pennsylvania.

[@StuGhostface]

Or you can buy a k&n air filter put it in your stock air box and use the original cold air intake that the jeep came with stock and make even more power for less and have a TRUE COLD AIR INTAKE.

When you stroke a 4.0l straight 6 don't usually stroke it to a 4.6 l?

[@juhomaki-petaja]

0,04” overbore +4,2L crank =~4,6L

[@davej3487]

A bigger 4.2 stroke in a stock 4.0 block is like 4.35L. So with no overbore you gain 350cc's. There are 667cc per stock cylinder so not quite the size of a 7 cylinder. A 0.030 overbore is 4.475L. A 0.040 over bore is 4.6L, still short of having 7 stock cylinders. A 0.060 overbore is 4.7L. You can get a bore and stroke for this 4.0 to make it a 5.0L I6. 0.060 over may get a few soft spots in the bore and a sleeve will be needed. We went this route. 1991 4.0L Larado with a 4.7 combo. A warm cam, ported stock head, MAP sensor adjustor and 4wheel High it will smoke most stock 4.6 Mustangs.

Dave J: 4.0(242) bore: 98,4mm 4.2(258) stroke: 98,9mm =4512cc Add .030” overbore=4582cc I got dimensions from Wikipedia

i thought the rear and front main seal had to be fitted with 1 side lower than the other so it didnt leak
