I wouldn't bet on it. Better contact Lunati's tech line.

Acc'd to their website you'll need to upgrade the induction and the compression ratio.

That is a lot of cam timing 226/234. Would have poor idle vacuum and the MAP and ECU wont like it and probably not idle well.

.527/.547" lift will require different springs, ? heavier, and heavier springs wipe out cam lobes?

There are better cam choices out there for stock efi stroker.

Maybe this would be a better choice?

The title says 'Great Stock Replacement' but then it also says 'Not for fuel injection' below. Maybe it's just flat tappets...

The '231' cam is probably the most versatile cam for Jeep I6 EFI engines - stock, built, stroker and SC .
