A little tidbit to whet the appatites of the 6 cyl mongers out there!

Subject: Re: [strokers] Accurate Power supercharger done?! 
Guys, 
Mike has indeed finished his supercharger kit for '97 and later XJ's. He
uses the Eaton 90 supercharger with 6lb max. boost. The result is
275hp/305lbft and a 1/4 mile time of 15.2secs in an XJ auto. That's
1.2secs faster than stock. 
The price tag of $4695 is very hefty. You could get an Accurate Power
4.6L stroker built for much less. For about $3000 plus installation, an
HO-engine 
based stroker with the AP big valve head can put out around
270hp/330lbft with matching ancillary components. Take a look at the
"stroker" page of my website http://www.jeep4.0performance.4mg.com for
more details. If 270hp isn't enough, you can add the supercharger to
your stroker engine and boost output to a tire-melting 380hp!

Well this is no official notice because I haven't heard from Mike, but
you will see his web site is updated!!!!

That is a nice looking kit, and a VERY hefty price *sigh* 
For the price of the supercharger kit, I could probably pay Mike to do a
stroker motor for me and even install it, with similar power. 
Thoughts anyone?

Subject: fsj: weather stripping

I have a buddy with an 85 Jeep GW that needs the weather stripping
replaced on the doors.  Does anyone know where I can get this besides the
Jeep dealer?
I think someone posted about this before with the part numbers but I
didn't write em down. 

Thanks,
Brian

Subject: fsj: Couple of things that maybe of interest

Hi Guy's

	There is a couple of things I found that maybe of interest to 
the list while going though my 83 Cherokee, while getting it ready for 
winter. I am rebuilding the engine and going though the vacuum and electrical
systems. 
  On the electrical system there is a blue wire coming off the ignition
switch that feeds the power seats and under hood light. This wire is of 
16 ga and is being fed by a 10 ga ignition feed wire without either fuse
or fusible link, this is a wire that is just waiting to melt down. I 
will add a fusible link on mine.
  I also run into a problem when checking out the vacuum system, the dual
function (EGR, Ign advance ) vacuum switch  (I had two old ones and they 
were both bad) is not listed in the parts guys books, so with
a bit of tracking I believe the correct valve is Standard PVS61, or Niehoff 
FE462 or Borg Warner EC957, It is a special order part from my local parts
houses. I hope this helps anyone looking for that switch..

Later Mike D.
