Here's reason I'm asking. My 4.0 that was original to truck had a warped head, block and piston problems so found a 97 Cherokee 4.0 that was rebuilt with around 40,000 off craigslist. Put it in last spring and about a month ago got a bad knocking. Guys going to pull motor (I have no garage) and see whats causing it. It has been bored so think if cylinders are bad will need a new engine again.
Been pricing 4.0 and they are $1,400 and up.
Its a 2WD, auto
If I could find a good running 318 would it fit and whats all involved ?
I'm not a chevy guy so no to a smal block chevy
