1063646 Funny, both are broken on my old cj and its quiet as a mouse...why don't you double gasket the manifold???...then the center bolts should be enough to keep it sealed. JUst a thought...figured if mine worked yours might....catch ya later...welcome by the way.[addsig]

1066692 I went with the 318, only cuz of its reliability and inteligent design. I bought the block for $300 and put about $400 into redoing the heads and gaskets. It has been said that parts for these are hard to find, but i yanked tons out of old dodge pickups in junkyards. Only problem i had...

1066693 if you were to cut a small access hole in your floor board, you'd be right where you wanna be. I remember my old tub was rotted out pretty bad and i could see the square nut plate right through the floor...plenty of access when it came time to remove it. just a thought. Good luck.[addsig]

1066695 Well how severely overheated are we talking here?...if it's as bad as you describe, it may be possible your head gasket is seeping. But you may just have a small leak around your pump. Either way you could try the old pepper trick...that never hurt, just put some pepper in the radiator...

1066696 hmm...40 at idle sounds about right for my 258...as well as my friends'. I've never had any problems with too much pressure, don't believe there's such a thing...and in that case i would just worry about those older seals and gaskets, might blow a couple out. i would worry if it drops...

1049352 Hey, BEEN WONDERING ABOUT THIS 4.0 HEAD CONVERSION FOR MY 4.2....I'VE BEEN HEARING MIXED FEELINGS ABOUT USING A PRE-1991 HEAD...ANYONE KNOW WHAT EXACTLY IS THE DEAL WITH THESE??? CAN I USE IT? I GOT A HEAD FROM AN 87 CHEROKEE FOR $100 WITH VALVE COVER AND EXHAUST MANIFOLD...SOMEBODY...

1050414 I found an 87 cherokee with a strong running 4.0l engine in it...128k rebuilt...and i also own an 85 cj with a 4.2l in it in need of hp and gas mileage...now would i get any real gain outta doing the swap (while also putting my intake and holley carb on the 4.0, therefore eliminating...

1050780 I've got a model 20 rear...the past owner threw in a one piece axle set and didn't grease the bearings (moron huh?) and well the whole outer end heated up, ground down and i got nothing!...since the bearings are aftermarket and unfindable...i temporarily rebuilt an old narrow m-20 with...

1053408 Anyone know how i can unfreeze the nut on the end of a rear brake line...the one going into the wheel cylinder...it's loose off the wheel cylinder...but it's caught on the brake line pretty tight...any ideas???...tried to use force but don't wanna twist/break the line...my last resort...

1054150 I live about an hour south of Albany, or 2 1/2 hrs north of NYC...right along the east side of the hudson...anyone got any clubs around or near here??[addsig]

1054153 the vacuum canistor in my cj is completely rotted out...In attempting to replace it i lost the smaller line, and the bigger line seems to be the only one that made any difference in engine performance...so i plugged it with a large bolt and tied it back...could someone tell me where the...

1055722 trouble!.....so i got stuck in this bilzzard up here in new york this president's day weekend. Went out today to try and get my cj unstuck and in giving it a little hell i got it out...But i guess continual revving at about 3-4 grand made it unhappy...and now i hear a very loud valve...

1056694 well the time finally came when i've decided to trash my 4.2 (at least for a while) and get some b*lls!...My friend has offered me an old Mopar 318 (similar to the 340 and identical to the 360)...for about $300...just needs a cam, headers/manifolds, and a way to mount it in my cj...

1063649 OK so the first cj to come to life was the cj2b and so on....this happened in 1945. Well i came up with an idea that i think EVERYONE on the jeep website might agree on. for the cj's 60 yrs of birth (2005)...they should have a 60th anniversary CJ7 return for a year. That's right the...
