I have a 1998 Jeep Cherokee XJ with a brand new 4.7 stroker engine and I'm wanting to convert it over to ''Carb'' instead of EFI. I got the whole carb setup done with Clifford Performance but I still need a good distributor that will take the place of the old EFI distributor. I've looked online is their any suggestions I looked at the "Mallory 4760101" but it says its for a Jeep 258 will a 258 distributor work in a 242 4.0 Engine. Please help, Up for any suggestions???

Get one of the Chinese HEI's or a DURASPARK distributor and drop it in and run.

or there are some copies on e-bay.

What intake manifold and carb are you going to use?
