XJ test drive went well. I've got a few loose ends to wrap up. I have to find new hardware to hold the exhaust together, install some little brackets that help route wiring, etc. Pretty excited though. Interestingly, I'm not seeing the power I was hoping for... not sure if the ECU needs time to adapt or if my exhaust (factory 2001 exhaust to the cat) is too restrictive, etc. I haven't done a WOT pull yet while the engine breaks in, so maybe that's part of it.

Well... after assembling this other engine (after learning the TJ short block wont work well in my XJ), on a hunch, I checked the pushrod length - it seemed like there was excessive preload on the hydraulic lifters. Turns out, they were 0.200" too long.
I figure this difference is from the aftermarket (Hesco) head, and roller rockers. Either way, the correct rods are in the mail.
