Re: Matador 4.0

["Jim Blair" <carnuck@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yeah right! The 4.0L makes 1.5 times the power of a 258, which the Mat also 
came with. About equal to a 304. Just need to watch gear ratio (I use the 
www.4lo.com calculators to figure out how to get an equivalent ratio to the 
Jeep one with the tire size differences)

I have an '89 Cherokee 4.0 with a 5sp. stick
2dr. in Black as a daily driver.

Forget it. Eats fuel and JUST manages
to move the Box around.

It is too small for that big a ride.

Someone has a combo that

inexpensively.
