y'arr welcome

Interesting about the 4.0L being based off of the 2.5L, "not the 4.2L"... yet the 4.2L crank and rods are a direct swap into the 4.0L... HMMMMM

Sometimes I find what JP Magazine writes hard to believe. Like how spending $400 on a Banks Ram Air for a 4.0L is "worth it".

Articles on the ol' 4.0 are always a nice read, even if they are nearly identical to the Wikipedia page

Yeah and that the engineers originally thought they should have produced more 2.5's in Cherokees.


Quick Reply: a cool article about 4.0's
