Been thinking about it. Been on the yahoo list for about a year....Now I think I might not.... Seems that the time/money/problems is not worth the gain.
NOT as simple to make one run well/right as I had thought. Compression/quench hieght are not easy to get right without some custom pistons=$$$$

I'd just find a low mileage, salvage 4.0L........a rebuild has gotta cost more than that...........

Problem with that is that I am still running a old none HO motor....so a low mileage 4.0l is gonna be hard to locate

Yeah but compared to a V-8 swap, pistons and injectors are starting to sound pretty cheap! Plus it'd be just about perfect amount of power all said and done. Without the headache of a smog legal V-8 transplant.
