Thanks a million for the quick response. I gotta say I’m not a hp hound. Loved it like it was, got me in & out of many jams. But I’m sure you know that ignition timing drove me nuts. I couldn’t agree more with engine rebuild/restore. What’s your top choice for fuel/ignition on 4.2? I did put Borla header on it as well. My rookie opinion is rebuild, gm hei distributor and carb. Thanks again

Moses, I am energized by your projects/knowledge and want some advice which I think will be simple for you. I have an 86 CJ-7 since 90. 4.2, 5-speed, Dana 44 rear, A/C, 4” lift, Xfer lowered, 4.10 gears, ltd slip front. 38,000 miles. Parked/stored 98-2010 until retired from Army. Then Mom drove Florida to Texas on low/no oil. Heard her coming before I saw her. Broke my heart and I put it in the barn. Engine still ran with knocking sound. The obvious question… What do you recommend?
