Re: 4.0 Heads in 2023

I'll have to send pictures to emails, unless someone wants to host pictures. I do have one of my head apart. I need to open the Combustion chamber to 60cc. By the FMS the tolerance is 52-58 cc. Both of the heads I did recently from '99 XJ were around 56cc.
Also, I could see using Chevy LS valves, with '95 Melling stock springs, and 4.0L stock retainers and Chevy LS keepers. Keep the lift below .450.

PM sent.
I did have a bit of a setback on my heads. While CC the heads, I notice that brass valve sleeves were not installed. POed me. Still, need to open up the CC's to 60cc.
I did look at the FSM for a 2000. The stock valve springs are rated at 76 ft-lb @ 1.625. Way less than I thought. Not sure what the '95's or HOs are.
