You go first Bill....
You go out and buy a new KJ and hook it up, invest the $30k and then put
your money where your mouth is.
If YOURS can take it, then I'll do it.

Re: MORE FRIGGEN HORSE POWER!
 

If you check out the link to that site there is a graph that shows the
TQ curve as the 4.6L stroker (the one I will actually end up with in as
they are boring it :) reaches 2000 rpm it is over 300 lbft of TQ and
at 2500 there is about 320 and only bumps a bit higher to like 330 at
3500-4500 then drops to 260 at about 5100 and then EXPLODES LOL :)

From what I've seen (insane inline JP magazine, they dyno a Golan
stroker in an XJ) the torque curve is more of a "line" damn near dead
flat all the way to valve float RPM's

It's got something like 100lb ft more at 1800.

I'm convinced the 4.0 explodes at anything above 3500 :-)
