Title: 2004 Tj 4.0
Post by: Mortalis5509 on November 08, 2019, 02:01:38 PM
Selling my 4.0 from a 2004. No issues, just going to something with more cylinders. 83k miles. It's been pulled and I have video of it running.
$800

Interesting. Let me think about it... wasn’t planning on pulling the trigger on anything until mid next year

It has 170k on it. I want to either supercharge or stroke it, but either way would require significant downtime and probably a rebuild. Was planning on buying a spare motor sometime next year with plans to drop it in over the holidays next year

All I know about a stroked 4.0 is they are hard to keep cool in a XJ. Hell, in stock form as well.

Most of the issues are with the older 4.0s and people running too high of compression. I’m going to keep it conservative, 4.6L on 89 octane making about 280hp

I would love a near 300 hp 4.0.

I’ll let you know how it turns out! I’ve been talking to a guy in SC who has done a lot of them with good results!
