This is on my engine and performance parts. the page after this has the custom work done to it described out and all. so if ya have any question dont be afraid to ask i will help as best i can.
-okay i started stock muffler but cut the tip off and added a tip, then i went and bought an exspensive sKunK2 mega-power turbo can muffler. its got a 3" inlet and a 4.5" outlet. it looks and sounds sweet go to the video page to hear it, ill up date the sound of the car as soon as possible. but it was well worth the money.
--i have the 2.4L twin cam 16 valve racing engine. at least it was racing engin in the 1990s or so. its is still my raceing engin and cranks out 150 HP stock, not bad for a GA.
----okay ive done very little high performance stuff to it yet. im starting on the performance tuff now. so give me some time and it will have alot more done to it soon.
---------my plans are getting cam shafts, high flow fuel rails, injectors, custom headers, 2.5" exhaust system, redo the fuel lines and fuel system, brembo brakes, convert the rear brakes to disk brakes, aluminum radiator, high performance fan, custom cold air intake,(right now its just ram air, with pvc. soon it will be built out of 3" aluminum piping, and be a real cold air intake. redo all the hoses in the engine with clear hoses, convert to sprak wires, with high performance distributers and wires.-----the largest plan is to get my turbo, it will all be custom made for the car, and im gettin it ready for turbo, thats why im doin all the fuel system and intake system, and custom headers.------

this is the custom intake i rebuilt explained on the next page how i did it.

this is the old trany, this one was killed, and then the old clutch too. i have a stage 1 clutch put back in and another clutch put in. it took over 3 months to find a 5 speed 2.4L trany. but it was well worth it cuz i luv my car, and yes my car came stock with a 5 speed. i didnt convert it.

i got polyurithane endlinks and i replace the bolt with a grade-8 bolt. they are an easy mod to do that is well worth it. well well worth it.

Hey man ! Yeah no time no talk. Been busy too since I came back from my holidays...to Albany. :D Bought a truck too, see bottom of page 6. :) Anyway, nothing new on the GA, when I came back I bought the truck then rented a storage unit so the GA is finally safe and dry for the winter. Hit me up man ! Let me know when you get that Cherokee ! :) J-S
