I´m asking for a little help and some advice because I want to make some changes in my XJ and I'm not sure on what to do.
Here's my Dilema:
As some of you might know I own a 1990 XJ with a 4.6L Stroker engine. Well, this summer I went to a trail ride to the Dunes and the Jeep did pretty well, but I couldn't climb a super heavy dune. After the ride, I start to think two solutions to add more power (Here´s were I need the advice of the Guru's) The solutions are:
1.- Do something else to my stroker engine (I don't want a Turbo, I would like to keep it aspirated), I could add some Headers, Cam, Rollers, Cat Back, a K&N FIPK, and some other things. I'm pretty sure that the total price of all the upgrades I can make to my engine would be pricey, and I'm not sure I could get a lot more out of my 6 banger.
2.- Replace my stroker with a Chevy 5.3L and a 4L60E tranny.
I'm open to any suggestion.
Thanks in advance.
