News!
This weekend I talked with a buddy of mine that just purchased a Jeep GC with the 4.7L, the engine was having a startup problem, it took 5 seconds or more to start. He had it taken to the dealer, the cause of this problem was due to the fuel return system that wasn't working correctly.
While talking with the local dealer mechanic, he found out that the 5.2/5.9 engines are having some real bad problems around 60K and that the engines are just blowing up! He said, it was due to a bad oiling system and some part wasn't big enough.
Old news, I decided to port and cut the runners some on my stock intake, very bad moldings and like someone else said, the intake opening from the TB did have a lip that I looked for and grinded it down. Looks much better now! I have about 30 mins to and hour left to finish up putting back the engine together. I tried the Stock Keg, 2bbl M1 and now Modded Keg report soon to come :)
Question, How much would a set of stock magnum heads be worth? 17K miles, 2001 MY, No problems.
