Been thinking of building a stroker motor for my 97 XJ, AX-15, 2wd. I have access to a complete I6 out of a 93 XJ hooked to a AW4, which needs a rebuild. Why cant i just put the 4.2L Crank and Rods in it while keeping the stock H.O. cam and valvetrain, id like to avoid machine work if possible, and gain a few extra ponies? would this be feasible without decking the head? im guessing it will have around a 9.4 to 1 compression ratio if i leave it alone. id like to be able to run it on 87 octane if possible?
Just want to get some opinions/ideas on how to undertake this project.
Thanks in advance
