Re: Question From a Potential JEEP Wrangler Buyer
It's a part of all SMOG motors since the seventies. Probably, the
best part about buying a two hundred dollar chip. God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O mailto:-------------------- http://www.----------.com/ Dave Milne wrote: > > Do any other models have limiters out of interest ? > > -- > Dave Milne, Scotland > '99 TJ 4.0 Sahara |
Re: Question From a Potential JEEP Wrangler Buyer
Man, that big six just 'don't' rev over 4500 rpm.
I have no computer or other pollution crap running an she tops out at 4500 in 2nd gear. It pulls strong and then the pull just 'stops' dead at 4500. I was told the only way to get a bit higher out of them was to replace the valve springs with a 'lot' stronger ones to stop the valve float.

Re: Question From a Potential JEEP Wrangler Buyer
Hi Mike,
Your year would probably need a cam and kit, of course your two hundred Cubic Feet Per Minute POS Carter BBD wouldn't let rev that high. But it was way up there when I pitted for a stock Rambler back in the 1964 Winter Nationals at Pomona, California. When you going to get a Weber? And don't tell me how Weber has a part in your POS. If you put the K55138 2 Barrel 400 CFM Weber on your CJ you could shift at six grand: http://www.classictruckshop.com/garage/shopmathcfm1.asp God Bless America, ßill O|||||||O mailto:-------------------- http://www.----------.com/ Mike Romain wrote: > > Man, that big six just 'don't' rev over 4500 rpm. > > I have no computer or other pollution crap running an she tops out at > 4500 in 2nd gear.

Re: Question From a Potential JEEP Wrangler Buyer
quite... I couldn't imagine it at 6000 rpm. It sounds like its going to
detonate at 3500 and the police can hear you coming a block away...
