put a '99 Cherokee 4.0 in mine. did a port match for the original 258 intake and put Howell fuel injection on it. Davis ignition. Runs like a champ and I got away from the Mopar junk injection. Uses 1985 OBD-1 GM throttle body system off 4.3 V-6. (all parts available at...

I think a Grand Cherokee 4.0 pump has an additional outlet.

use this from Ebay G4 AUTOMOTIVE HID Relay Harness 50W Resistor Headlight Power Upgrade Adapter Kit This uses a relay to run low amperage to your headlight switch and high amperage to your headlights. Kept cooking headlight switches until I realized the headlight switch was receiving full...

MSD makes a Variable ignition control unit. It allows you to adjust through a 15 degree range via a dash mounted control. I had one on my '83 8 with a 258. I live in Colorado at about the 5000 ft range and often went up to about 10,000 ft. It worked great!

I believe Novak also has an uncut trans cover that is rolled to the proper radius for your Scrambler's floorpan. Good Luck on your conversion, you will have no regrets Paul

Thanks, guys (Hi Scott!) The best thing about being around here is that a guy can give an opinion and not be battered for it. I guess the "T" word isn't on the list, besides kids don't know what it means in this context. For those I offended, please accept my apology, I got caught in the...

Hi Guys, Paul's back form the dead. I still have my '81, but haven't done much with it lately. Anyhow, I dropped in on this thread looking for Dave and found the whole rant about the Big 3 and more importantly the problems in America. Fact is, we all might as well bend over, because we're going...

Eric, It was not my intention to spoil your evening, but I won't try to blow smoke up your butt, either. You got me with the SELP thing. No idea what it stands for. I'm guessing it's some sort of sales. I'm not so sure that buying low is ALWAYS a winning "can't lose" strategy. Not in this...

Why don't you tell us all about Carleton, eh? You need to quit blowing smoke. You may feel safe from the bad old city down on the flood plain, but you're not. Just remember the more people that move away, the more you'll be paying in taxes to pay for the existing infrastructure. (you too, Eric)...

Have a feel for when that will happen? Once the American automakers take back their market, I suppose. That "might" happen when "Americans" support their country and go back to "Buying American". That is a strange concept to many who require instant gratification. Curiously, Toyota has lost...

I LOVE price wars!!:D :D
