[@scotteric8711]

4.060 stroke- eagle crank (AMC) scat rods, 4.0 length, NOT 4.2 unless you reduce the pin height in the pistons. DSS makes perfect pistons for these. 4.00 bore. Costs as much as a high quality stock build. If you wanna make serious power, convert the heads over to 8mm LS valves and the rest is OE design. Roller rockers and cam will make it bullet proof. This will yield you a "square" engine where its happiest right at 5.0L. Most guys sleeve the block to 4.00 but you can go .20-30 over in the parent block and still be around 4.6-4.7L.

I love your approach to keeping it simple and within the parameters of what the engine is really designed for. Those straight 6 engines are great for low end torque no point in attempting to design it for high rpm running.

[@edwardshields2777]

Mike, I love how you explain everything. It makes me smile how chill you are! Thank you! I had a few questions... 1) What head casting did you guys use? 2) I've never ported a head, but would like to try with a 4.6 build. Is it OK to do the port work without the aid of a flow bench? 3) Would you consider making a video where you show exactly how to port one of the cylinders on one of these heads? 4} Is this the long rod version of a 4.6/4.7 build? Do the advantages of a longer rod outweigh a shorter piston skirt? 5) What would be the price range for a turnkey version of the engine in this video with all of the surface treatments? Just a rough ballpark is fine. Thanks again!!

[@motoiq]

1.The head used a TURPY casting, in retrospect, I would have used an Edelbrock head. 2. Ready don't recommend you just try to port a head, it is not an easy art. You can do some simple things like break the edge on the short side radius, blend the bottom cut of your valve job into the bowl, and blend the bowl into the port, all removing small amounts of material, that is pretty safe. 3. We generally don't port heads, we buy pre-ported heads from reputable head people. We do sometimes clean up heads as I explained in #2. 4. Yes, longer rod engines typically rev smoother but have less low-end torque. 5. I think it was something like 7k.

With around 11:1:0 compression, mild cam, & good head-flow you can have a solid 300hp 4.7L with lots of torque.

[@FUCK_________googIe]

That's really underselling it, a 10:1 setup with a heavily ported head and intake and a cam with 50 thou lift will make almost 330hp and 375tq. I'd imagine 11:1 would put you considerably closer to 350/400. And a better cam might send you well past the mark

[@jamesford2942]

I'm building a 4.0 Jeep stroker. To address the head I'm cutting and welding two 351 Cleveland heads together. This gives the crossflow and much better ports. I would like to punch it out to a 4" bore but I think that would be pushing it so for longevity I will probably bore it enough to clean up the cylinders.

[@motoiq]

That is interesting for sure. However the Cleveland heads would not be my first choice, the exhaust port design is pretty bad. If you had to have the same bolt spacing, I would look at some of the newer SBF heads.

[@boringbob9357]

[@6789garza]

It’s a bummer Jeep ditched these low end torque monsters. My 4.0 was night and day easier to drive and crawl then the new 3.6.

[@skylinefever]

I think they couldn't keep the 4.0 inline smog legal, that's why the Wrangler lost it in 2007. The 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee lost in in 2005, because fitting a V6 and and a V8 under the hood is easier than fitting an inline six, so goodbye. Many cars lost an inline six because the company wanted to save space. As much as I hate the MKV Toyota Supra, I at least like that it still has an inline six.

[@jmflournoy386]

why they had to go with 8 speed trans to get the revs and torque up

[@Fulcrum205]

​@@skylinefever I think it had more to do with money. Switching to an engine that was used in other Mopar vehicles let them close an entire engine production line and eliminate the costs associated with it. They could have redesigned the head and met emissions. A canted valve head will give a combustion chamber shape just as efficient as an overhead cam engine.

[@skylinefever]

@@Fulcrum205 Eliminating assembly lines may have been one of multiple reasons. I see your point.

[@Fulcrum205]

@skylinefever i agree that packaging probably was a factor. A V engine let's them shorten the engine bay and increase interior room without making the vehicle longer and heavier.

As always very informative. I have an XJ 4.7 stroker build on my honey-do list for 2022 since ours is easily north of 200k miles now. I have been hesitant to do the stroker build as ours is a mixed use vehicle that still needs to pass CA emissions tests. Ignoring (ahem, I mean complying with) every other aspect of a CA emissions test process when the sniffer meets the tail pipe could this 4.7 stroker still pass smog? Arguably it's all in the cam profile, but it would be an interesting story to not only see your motor on the chassis dyno for power numbers, but on a smog dyno for emissions numbers.

[@RadDadisRad]

Do a LS swap. Look up the CARB legal LS kits or purchase a complete emissions system for the LS.

[@motoiq]

Like the GM Performance EROD engines that are CARB approved.

[@motoiq]

If you kept all the stock emissions intact it would probably pass a sniffer test but by the letter of the law, this is not legal.

[@kingjefff]

E-rod kits are only CARB legal on 1994 and older vehicles

[@skylinefever]

If it is post 1996, don't they just plug into the OBDII port, look for any obvious smog hacks, and do a pass or fail that way? Anyway, I agree, actually hooking a 4.7 stroker to a smog tester would be interesting.

[@obfuscator]

This is great to see, thanks for sharing. I have a question about WPC treating the bearings, isn't it going to increase hardness hence eliminate the benefits of being more absorbent (comment about the dirt particles in the oil)? Looking forward to the updates on this build. Thanks.

[@motoiq]

Racing bearings also have a hard, thin outer layer and are not as good for embedding dirt as well.

[@Fulcrum205]

You can have bearings blasted with Moly or Tungsten dry lube without the ceramic balls. That gives the dry film coating without affecting bearing hardness.

Good teacher.

[@HILLBILLY_HARD]

I’m curious to know how this engine is doing now after 2 years. I’ve owned a Jeep Stroker engine for a long time and I’ve seen a lot of things. I found that using beehive springs, “as the cam manufacturer recommended”, caused my engine to devour camshafts like it was on a mission! I finally figured out that going back to stock springs fixed this issue. The two camshafts that were devoured floated debris into my main bearings and opened up my mains until I lost oil pressure at idle. I recently had the crank turned and the block line honed again and am in the process of building my stroker back. Used arp main studs and head studs and I will definitely not be using high valve spring pressures. The way I see it, if my engine is not going to turn over stock rpm then it is not going to float valves.. just curious if the owner of this engine is still running it and still happy after two years?

[@motoiq]

I don't know what your lashup is or what your cam manufacture recommended vs what got put in their but our engines last as long as they are set up and tuned right.

[@HILLBILLY_HARD]

@@motoiq thanks for the reply! I really enjoy watching your videos and wish I had the money to have you build me some Subaru engines. Maybe one day I will!

[@motoiq]

The first thing I would check if it was eating cams up is the installed height and the coil bind height to see if that was set right. Also, did you confirm the seat and open pressures? If you used the exact same springs that the cam manufacturer recommended and it ate the cams, the first thing was the lifters new? Old lifters on new cams are bad, then beehive springs could mean anything, this just describes the shape. If they were the exact right springs, was the installed height confirmed? Was the coil bind height confirmed as on the engine with the confirmed rocker ratio and correct rocker geometry? This is all the stuff that your typical home builder skips. Not saying you did but most do and this is the biggest cause of valvetrain issues in home-built engines.

[@HILLBILLY_HARD]

@@motoiq I had all my original head work done by a legitimate machine shop and I was there when he checked all the spring pressures and coil bind heights. New cam and lifters both times, correct break in procedures, etc etc. I’ve been an automotive technician for 20 plus years and graduated from Nascar Technical Institute in 2005. One of the other things I’ve found doing research on Jeep aftermarket camshafts is the lobe width. The factory 4.0 camshaft is a lot wider than any aftermarket grind you can get. I think the increased spring pressure on top of the narrower lobe width on the aftermarket cams was causing the issue. Both cams that died were from Competition Cams. I went back with a stock 4.0 HO cam and stock springs the last time and had no cam wear problems. The engine was very strong and had zero noise when it lost idle oil pressure. I triple checked it with a manual gauge and it was zero at idle but would come up to around 20-25 psi with rpm. I decided to remove the engine and go through it before something bad happened and found severely worn main bearings. Clearances of .006” in the middle journals and .004 near the outer ones. I believe the metal from the worn cam lobes eventually wiped out my mains. When I put it back together this time I’m going with a better cam company. It’s in the process of being a great engine this time around. Waiting on the $ to finish it! The Jeep it’s in is on some of my earlier KZbin videos. I love the stroker torque and power from low end! It makes me smile when I can outrun a stock Jeep while being over 500-800 lbs heavier and also hauling a trailer. My Jeep is a 88 2door Cherokee Laredo sport. 3.73 gear ratio on 31x10.50x15 with 3” of lift. Automatic swapped it back in 2013 due to the 5 speed breaking the output shaft twice. Pugeot transmission and I beat on it pretty hard. Overall I love my Jeep and It will eventually be on the road again. Thanks so much for replying to my comments! You have an amazing channel and I’ve been watching all your videos. Keep up the great work!

Is bumping off the rev limiter while climbing up a sand dune, rock pile or snow wheeling considered high rpm? Or is it because the inline 6 has a redline of only 5200-5300rpm is what makes it not high revving?

The latter, the engine is designed for torque and the head doesnt flow well enough for high RPM power, even when ported.

My application will see some boost one day but I want to build a very good&reliable n/a motor and the Boost it when money will allow me I do want it to be very torquey off the bat to get me off the line and enough hp to be able to go from 50-80 in a few seconds for my safety per say when I merge or pass My goal is to have a na motor that can easily achieve north of 320hp and maybe 400 ft pounds of torque if even possible 🤷🏽‍♂️on pump gas and hopefully over 500hp when I supercharge/or turbo it one day with gobs of torque If I could get some info on what parts to get I would really appreciate it !!

Basically this build with better rods and pistons for future FI.

I beg to differ Mike, it IS a sexy beast still, just not an HP sexy build but a TQ one

That is not recommended, there are some benefits for Cryo treating.

I wish FCA, Stellantis or whoever owns Jeep would have improved this motor for today’s emission standards, instead of replacing it with the 3.8 and then that POS 3.6 “Plastic Man” Pentastar. I can change a head gasket or a water pump on a 4.0 quicker than spark plugs on a 3.6.
