[90cherokeexj]

alright i dont know a lot about motors but all my buddy's do. basically i have a stock 4.0 as of now. i want to do a 4.6 stroker. but idk what i all need to do/get. thats where hopefully you guys come in. what do i all need. i know all new engine internals, but wat did you guys use for your's. id like to also like to a bigger cam and injectors. but idk what size id need. or is there any way i could but a bigger crank shaft and stuff like that in it but not actually bore the motor/new pistons. i think my friend was saying you can take a chevy 350. throw in 400 crank shaft and you end up with like a 383. idk i could be wrong though. if you guys could make a list of what i all need or what you used that would be awsome. also depending on how much time you got on your hand link to the product would also be greatly appreciated

First off, welcome to the site....

I might be wrong, but i don't think anybody is going to do all your research for you. Its not that everyone around here isn't helpful, they definitely are. At the very least you probably want to post up what your goals are (is your XJ going to be used as a rock crawler, daily driver, drag strip, etc.) and then what your budget is.

A few months ago i was where you are now, I knew very little about engines beyond the basics. I started reading the FAQs section in the Stroker Basics Forum. Then i read the project threads; the ones that seemed to apply to my build more than once. Most of the project threads have parts lists in there...and a lot of people have their build specs in their signatures. Also check out Dino's (Cheromaniac on here) 4.0L performance website.

Take a look at the various threads in the "Projects" forum. I know I have a fairly complete list and so do some others. And do your research.
