Need your advice on my situation
Posted: November 3rd, 2010, 1:56 am
I just picked up a 1984 CJ7 with a 4.2/t-5/d300 setup. I'm looking for EFI. I have done a few 5.7 swaps in yj's and thought about running that route here. But i think i want to try something different.... with that being said i have a '84 4.2 complete (needs rebuild). I also have a '91 4.0 from an xj with auto trans... i can get my hands on a '87 4.0 drive train as well.
With these parts would I have a good starting point for a stroker? I'm not looking for huge horse power. Just something reliable and a litte bit more oomh then a stock 4.0. I'm looking to keep it around 1,000-1,500 for the drivetrain.
I guess i'm asking what block/heads should i be using and then i can go from there.
