I believe the heads are truck heads. The block I was told is from a 72. That's really all I know. I bought this already installed in a 97 Jeep Wrangler TJ, and am just repeating what I was told. But he also told me it made 380hp and 400tq on the dyno

duh, sorry. I guess i just assumed small block is 350. it's not stroked or anything. From what I can tell, the bottom end is stock with the 8 or 8.5 compression ratio, then a mechanic told me with the heads it raises to 9.5.
HP peaks 243HP at 4000RPM, and torque peaks at 379TQ at 2000RPM and drops off from there. It's at 318 by 4000RPM, 217 at 5000RPM, and falls flat from there. I imagine your Jeep with the current setup isout of juice by about 3500 to 4000RPM.
Here is what someone else told me, is this right?!
I didn't know him but followed his posts. True hotrodder, he will be missed. RIP 34_40 MIKE. Condolence to the Mrs. Nolan
