Whats that weird whine on yours though?
Yours is way louder, choppier and you can hear the cylinders more directly. Mine is a Flow Master Super 40 with Dynomax mandrel bent tail pipe.

I don't think the Gibson is louder than a FM40.. might just be the video.

Actually, I have a friend with a Gibson setup on his 4.0L XJ, we'll have to compare.

Pretty sure I found a lean spot above 4000rpm, medium load and small throttle opening. Pinging like an SOB.

It has been 100degrees here too though.

At first I thought I had a bad bearing in a pulley or the fan was rubbing on something. I can see why a stroker would be shortlived if that was left undetected.
