Re: Have '89 jeep cherokee engine maybe trade for '92 cherokee engine?
Ahh ok, good to know, thanks. I knew the ports were different but
didn't know the headers were. So only the short block will swap then. Man I got this 258 with a new crank sitting in my garage and an 88 4.0 getting tired..... Stroker, mmmmm......

Re: Have '89 jeep cherokee engine maybe trade for '92 cherokee engine?
The HO intake manifold is a whole lot nicer. The flow geometry is
nice and symetrical. Between that and the port angles they got a bunch of ponies to add to the 4.0. Not that I would sneer at the umph of the '88 head on a 258 block...

Re: Have '89 jeep cherokee engine maybe trade for '92 cherokee engine?
I am thinking the guts of the 258 into the 4.0 block making it something
like a 4.7 'stroker'. :-) It would be worth it to just swap the short block for the OP then eh. Keep the head and intakes and swap from there down. Even if the head needed a valve job, that isn't much. Mike Will Honea wrote: > > The HO intake manifold is a whole lot nicer. The flow geometry is > nice and symetrical.
