I have heard of several people having issues with Titan strokers before. Also you would need a stronger transmission, tcase and axles with all the power youd be putting out.

 

You could just build your own then you know it is good and hee is what you would need

wonder what that 5.0 stroker would do to my 2wd shortbox comanche? hmmm i like

 

I would give a ******** to have a 5.0 stroker. ok maybe not a whole one but at least 1/2

 

I dunno - how often do you figure you're actually using both of them?

I could give a whole one. I think the power output might actually cause a new one to drop, come to that.

 

300 HP at 5000 RPM....HOLY COW!!!!!! Do any of you guys regularly run your 4.0 up to 5000 RPM?! I've done it a couple of times to get up hill in deep slushy snow but, my Jeep sounds like it's literally screaming......not to mention that's when the rev. limiter starts trying to cut in. it's not something I like or want to do on a regular basis.

 

Well yea your right I would not either. But if I had a 5.0 stroker motor with a custom comp tune and the ability to do it then that is a different story I have only heard of one guy with this done and he uses it for racing not off-roading. Why? you ask. I don't know and never had a chance to ask but it sure is cool.

 

all right I am going to through this out there rebiuld it or hemi the rebuild sounds like less of problem to pull it rebiuld put it back in. The wifes has 172,000 miles on it and of course I get her trail rig to drive and she takes the tow rig, 06 dodge ram mega with a cummins. 5000 rpm all the time have to jump on it to get over four lanes of busy trafic leaveing college and smokes the tires every time. god I love that 4.0 liter!!!

 

If I was to do any stroker engine than I would buy a 4.0 & a 4.2 From the junk yard first and not do any pulling or putting in till the engine is ready. That is the easy way but it does cost more time and money.

 

You can pull a Engine, trans, transfer case out of a wrecked one for cheap up here in the Mich. Maybe like $300 at the most... big dreams...
