I won't be the last one to say this... Not much you can get out of this old push rod engine without tearing it apart and stroking it.

I realize that but gotta wait a year or two for i can pull it off the road and "STROKE" it. Pun intnded. Do the chips help at all? Even better mpg for 55$(price of chip) might pay for itself, or just better highway response would be worth it to me

I would do a cowl induction with a bored throttle body and exhaust before I did a chip. I've heard they don't do anything/ make things worse. But someone with real world experience with chips should chime in soon.

I think it is Jet that also makes an upgrade for pre-ODB II Cherokee's. I considered it for about 5 seconds.
