Its kind of like "Tim Taylor" the tool guy on the show... more power more power... which means more money. Here is my take on the stroker... I did this with my son as a father son bonding thing, which worked great by the way... but man it was expensive to do. By the time we were done we had bored the cylinders, high grade pistons, special cam, decking the block, reduced head gasket thickness, valve springs, lifters, and so on and so on.... we had close to 3G's into that little 4.0, but man did it run. we estimated we put over another 100hp to the bottom line easy. Here is the catch question, have you or anyone ever seen a jeep run out of horsepower 4 wheeling.... the kind that we do anyway... crawling? So getting more horses or not is up to you and your wallet... LOL Somewhere I do have information on the "stroker" we did.
I am trying to juggle my weekend schedule and seeing if I can shoot over your way and take a look at things if you want me too. It would probably be on Sunday.

No! It was discussed at the meeting. The 14th is the OK 4wd open house If you spend $50 you get a free pass to Rausch Creek for the 15th.

Kinda hard to discuss if you're not at the meeting. Isn't that why there is an Events Section on the forum?? Just sayin.
