yeah but thats not worth 100hp or anything like thatbesides if you get somthing from howell it takes two years to get it...hell for the same price (if not less) you could put a 2.4 in.then you couldjust mod that with new pistons and other fun stuff and get even more power.

well estneon, i think this is the first time that im going to have to agree with you. much too expensive considering the that the block has to be bored out as well.

UDP 150$
MS unit 450$
Bottom end kit 12.0:1 compression ratio with high volume oil pump 1100$
jeep cherokee TB 30$

i was thinkin about the bottom end kit, but i'm not for sure about taking the crankshaft out. i don't want to have to pull the motor out or unbolt the transmission.........hell i'll try and fit the bootom and top end rebuild kit in my budget. anyone know how to remove the crankshaft without pullin the engine and tranny????
