Glad it runs well, you won't know if it's probe to detonation until you're driving up a long grade (or towing) under power at speed at operating temps, and higher ambient only make it worse.
You can get more power out of ANY engine!!!

you can hear it!, low compression engines don't seem to be to affected by it?, high compression engines will blow holes right thrue the top of the pistons!

The Temps in Death Valley was 93 today, and drive'n my Jeep up the mountains leaving the valley, my temps
got around 210, but I have a 180 stat in it, allso 240 miles on the clock so its still not broke in yet ''
but what concerns me is, I really dont feel any great power gains''. She drives great, but with a little more
power''' and @ 2300 and hit the gas, Shes a bat out of hell'' but @ normal speeds, shes just like she used to be !
really nothing really special'' even drive'n up the small hills'' nothing special'' 1 out of 10 and 10 is the best
and 5 is normal, my jeep gets a 5.5 sometimes''' :huh: I dont get it'' , Its like its not stroked'' !

Well it looks like every one here is just wanting for my Stroker to blow up or something
Becouse no one has, lift any comments'' after this comment !!

Yup, it will continue getting better for a few thousand miles. What part number did you go with for the injectors?

There, Dodge/Mopar 280155784 EV6 connector I thank there from a 5.2 motor & was flowed for 49 psi @ 26 pounds
maybe custom made for my I6 stroker by Bill @ FIC they work great & the motor runs very smooth

They are off a 98-2000, Caravan, Stratus, Sebring and the like with a 2.4. From what I have found they flow 21.3lb/hr @ 43.5 PSI.

Well'' Thats just about right, a 21.3 lb injector will fire at 26 lbs @ 49 PSI, so I thank these injectors are good
But I'm proably robbing my cubic inches'' just a little using my stock cam, So with that beening said, I thank theres
a little room for some improvments ''Later'' if I like to do so'' . Plus I originaly built this engine for longevity'' I need
to make this jeep get from, A to B that are hundreds miles away, in the hot desert sun 100 degrees, + driving 45-80 MPH
and to do it all day long, and if our viewers think,''good luck'' Dude,,, I'm fully equipped to survive, this jeep is like a
trophy truck with king shocks, & lots of suspension. So'' lets drive'' :banana: I'm ready :stick:

They will run 22.6 lb/hr @ 49 psi. Which is just a little bit better than stock.
