" Problem is, most of the 2wd, 5sp Cherokee's I find are 2.5's, not 4.0. " No big deal, they did make a bunch of them between '91-95, certainly a " better one will pop up!
my theory is that these are no-option strippers - remember, even the 4.0 was optional!
" My goal is to find one that needs no rebuilding, except perhaps on " things like water pump or extra stuff. We'll see how it works out.
i'm in the same boat, only the supply of 2dr and esp. 2wd is a lot thinner up here. i'd -like- to find one with -just- the 4.0. i'm almost resigned to a 2.5 if i can find one.
I know the 4.0 head flows better, but why aren't I seeing more plentiful, drop-in 258's with Megasquirt FBI EFI?
I plan on doing one over the winter, after I bill for a consulting job that's been going on all summer, and paint the Hornet. Then I'll do it as a documented construction project, but I didn't want to be first; I'm lazy.
