Renix 4.6 engine build

Post by Lilblue89xj »

So I spent some time at the salvage yard today. Scored myself a $300 engine with 20k less miles than my xj. I noticed it had a new distributor, coil, 4 hole injectors, and some other goodies! So now the real fun begins! I think the best part is my girl is just as excited as I am. Check out my find guys!!!!

Been awhile since I've posted so here's an update. I tore the 90' block down I noticed the cam, lifters, and timing chain all looked in excellent condition. The bad things I saw were a couple rod/main bearings. I've since hauled it to machine shop and looking at some various machine work. Working with russ pottenger for the majority of the parts and knowledge to this build so special thanks to you! When I get it back from machine shop I'll post another update.
