So I finally got time to do my first blog. Pictures might be sideways Im not sure. Im not a certified mechanic. Everythng i know ive learned over the years and some is self taught. So I traded for a 97 Jeep cherokee sport a few months back. The guy said it had a slight knock and would need a motor. Well I had found a 2000 cherokee for parts on a good deal, bought it, brought it home, and discovered the difference. Little did I know or pay attention that the 97 was a distributor motor and the 00 was a coil pack motor. So my project began of taking two motors and making one work in my Jeep.!() I dont have as detailed photos as id like with it being my first blog. Trial and error. I'll do better next time. Anyway I had to take the good block from the 00 and place my head off the 97 onto it. While I had the engine torn most of the way down I replaced some core parts. It got a new oil pump, a new timing set, water pump, thermostat, all new gaskets, and new injectors.. I was a long process considering I had carpal tunnel surgery in the middle of my project. I finally managed to get the motor back in the jeep and with some help from some friends finally got the jeep running. Tomorrow I am goin to get slightly better tires put on it so hopefully it will be legal soon

Seeing the head off the straight six brought back memories. I remember doing a valve job, rebuilt head on a chevy straight six long ago. It had a carb and no injectors cause didn't exist yet. I did many engine and tranny swaps in my late teenage years. They were all Pontiacs and how I learned to work on cars.
