im thinking about doing a 4.7 stroker in my 95 xj. i already got a motor that got rebuilt from my 93 zj, its got bored over .030", got a Comp Cam (for fuel injection), and a complete head and valve job. it also got a used crank that got checked out and is completely fine.

what i want to do is get a crank from a 4.2L along with rods, Comp Cam roller rockers, double roller timing chain and new push rods.

i plan on doin a 62mm throttle body, with a late model intake manifold with banks headers and CAI kit

i was just wondering if its worth doing and if anyone has one in their xj, how is it and how long they have had it running, and any problems or things u would do differently. and if anyone knows if im missing anything or if i just shouldnt do this all together, it would be great to know now lol

 

wow, no thoughts?

 

I helped my friend build his, we didnt bore it cause pistons were out of the budget. It didn't run very long till it starting having issues.

 

what kind of issues did it have

 

He hasnt torn it apart yet but he lost oil pressure which was the result of the lifter collapsing
