WTB: engine for a 2000

Hi, hopefully I'm in the right section. I live in manassas va about an hour north of Richmond. I need an engine for a 2000 cherokee sport.

Thoughts, comments, suggestions?

Thanks

I may be in the same situation of needing to replace the 4.0 in my 2000 sport 4x4.

What did you end up doing?

I have been told I need a replacement head. Any guidance on how to go about finding one of there - specifically what vehicles / years have the TUPY head?

Also, what components (intake, exhaust, airbox duct, etc) will need to be replaced to mate up to the new head?

Thank you.

You'll need a 99 style head, intake and exhaust manifold, and modify the down pipe to work with the 2000 exhaust. You'll also need to fabricate brackets for the ignition coil pack.

There's a Cylinder head company in Clearwater that I've used before. They were good to me.

BOB at this place has a new aftermarket head with a lifetime / unlimited mile warranty for $445.

He says it is better than the original and will bolt up to my existing components.

How does this look?

Sounds like a plan to me.

After removing literally EVERY item necessary to pull the head itself, I discovered this.....

While I understand that this is a fine reason for missing, I think it is an exhaust valve and with the poshrod displaced, it should be closed.

What say the experts?...

In hindsight, I will try to remember to start with the valve cover next time.

How about this one...

 

[Lowrange2]

Nope. Host it through a 3rd party site.

Sorry. This one should work.

 

[Lowrange2]

Ah, that's definitely not what you want.

Put it back in there and crank the engine over by hand and see what happens.
