Outlaw, I'm trying to wrap my head around this. Explain to me again how you're going to get nearly 200 hp out of an engine that is listed at 135?
This is essentially what you're doing, right? Lots of research in this one:

Are you going Multi-port or TBI? I want more details and am too lazy to find your post where I'm pretty sure you described it to me a few months ago...

A holes. My parents battled them for 5 years over one accounting error. Had to get a state congressman to step and tell the IRS to leave them alone.

I had the first one running he a till a failure occurred. At idle, sounds like a V6 at higher RPMs it sounded like a Rally motor. (It is a 4cyl after all.) Compression ratio is 10.2:1. Higher octane is only required in two instances, High Compression and High RPMs. I use no less than 89 octane.

Got a new DD so I can take my time on the Jeep.
Atleast it's AWD/4WD so i can come play if it's nothing crazy til I get the engine swapped in this jeep. Now I feel like an LSx swap is in order.

Haha! By hillbilly, do you mean Matt from Bleepin Jeep? He lives in East TN where I'm from. I think I watched his video a dozen times the first time I rebuild my drums.
