Rockfrog Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 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?

Every HO I've ever had read around 12-14* BTDC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
