So been wondering if I were to used the new Renix timing set in my old motor on the new motor (97 TJ 4.0L) would I see a benefit? From what I've read the Renix timing set is advanced 8 degrees and the HO were only 4 degrees. Just nit sure how it would work with the later dual pattern cam is all?

 

Anyone have any ideas on this?

Huh? Every HO I've ever had read around 12-14* BTDC.

Valve timing and ignition timing have nothing in common.

I already have a new (only about 3000km's on it) timing set, Cloyes stock replacement for an 87-90. Not really wanting to buy another. From what I've read the Renix already has an additional 4 degrees on the HO as it is.
Just not sure how it would play with the 97's dual pattern cam .... I could use the additional Renix grunt for towing, that's for sure.

the dual pattern was supposed to increase low end torque right?
