ok nice intro
what do i need for a basic stroker or do i have all the parts needed
will the trans hold up and can i use my intake
what is the baseline hp if there is on
thanks for the advice

one

anything will help

You have all the basic parts for the stroker. Rods (both 4.2L and 4.0L rods depending on which pistons you go with), the 258 crank, the 4.0L engine block, and 4.0L head. You will need new gaskets, probably a new cam and lifters, new pistons, and the crank checked and/or turned. Maybe a valve job, etc. Basically everythign checked over and made new.

I don't know crap about CJs nor your transmission so i can't tell you if the engine brackets will work or if the transmission will explode. I also don't know if the intake and exhaust manifold will bolt up to the head. I'm more experienced with 91+ 4.0L aspects.

thanks
