I'd do it not a bad price for a stroker..

Now $2300 for a stock reman is insane, I paid less then $900 for mine shipped.

mikeg216

what he said there are tons of cheaper remans around hell i think a reman with a 15 k warranty from atk is 1300

Here is the list I have for when I build my stroker. minus the muff & cat.

1000 for a brand new stroked motor, not a bad deal if ya ask me. what toes this take the displacement to?

bigbadxj

Should be just about 4.6L maybe 4.5L. This list is from a friend Of mine that has done this and it is a beast hit some thing like 210hp and 265tq first time to the dyno so it adds a good 80hp and maybe 100tq!

yellow97XJ

210hp is 80 more than stock? thought 210 was stock?

01LimitedXJ

the engine may make 200 ish stock...but not at the wheels...figure closer to 100 - 150hp range at the rear wheels. you lose a lot power through the drivetrain.

oh ok wasnt really thinkin of WHP

yeah i have two friends that have the stroker motor and they are both 4.7 and they both have a custom cam. but one has LS1 pistons which runs a higher commpression and i think it will have a bit more TQ then the others.

bigbadxj

Yea i'm sorry those were RWHP & TQ numbers thanks 01limitedxj for explaining. so he would have over or around 300hp and over or around 400 tq!

01LimitedXJ

sure thing...

i dont know much about strokers (or engines for that matter ha)...but im slowly learning as well! actually next weekend im going to help a friend work on putting a strocker in a lifted MJ...his numbers were pretty similar. He said he took a test drive in the jeep it was in, and its justs insane.

bigbadxj

Here is another good list and I think it comes out to 4.7L just a little more money.


Here is a video of the guy with the build list I'm going to use.
and this is thew guy with the one up above I think I'm not sure just go on what they say.

My brother is a mechanic and when I told him I got an XJ he said when are we building you a stroker? Well if I need new bearings to cure the low oil pressure problem then it may be a lot sooner than I was thinking (I was thinking next year or so...).
He has built 3 for Wranglers and said they go together easy and are just a blast in the power gained, and they can be built cheap. :-)
