Great to hear!

I put one of these on my 04 standard 4.7 without the underdrive. Really felt the difference in engine smoothness, I think my original balancer was going south on me. When I tightened the Torx+ fasteners I just put the balancer back on the shaft over the keyway, held it perfectly while torquing them. And I have to thank you for the video on the solid lash adjusters, made a world of difference in how the engine sounded and even better how it performed. 08+ cams are next, I have already cleaned up the stock replacement heads porting wise. Enjoy your videos, nice seeing someone else going after performance with the Jeep 4.7. Mine is more off road with a 3.5" lift, 33" tires and 4.56 gears but I do like have my engines running as good as possible. I will most likely put the 08 manifold and GM throttle body on it as well, though it is off road capable it surprises quite a few from a dig.

Mr. Martin I must say that I obviously need your channel but my wish list is growing with each video I watch. One day, I will be a multi-thousandaire and will be able to make all these mods on my Dakota. Until then, thank you sincerely as I appreciate the service you give to us all, as without you I'm sure my mechanical repairs would not go as smoothly as they have since I watched my first vid from your library.

For a off-road let's say a rock crawler where RPM is low much of the time I'm not sure I would go with the 25% underdrive. Just to be clear the engine oil pump spins exactly the same RPM because it is driven by the crankshaft. I checked the voltage on the alternator with all the accessories on the lowest it ever went was 12.5 volts. Occasionally I can feel a slight difference in the power steering at idle when I'm trying to make a quick turn I feel a little bit more resistance. Cooling still seems to be okay I did install a new radiator while I had it all apart. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be doing a electric fan conversion in the next few months. I'm just not happy with the hydraulic fan. In theory these hydraulic fan should perform very well I'm just not seeing it. As far as numbers on the 08 camshafts are you talking about lift, duration and lobe separation?

I got one 4.7 v8 last week, I love it but in the same day it stopped working, the coolant was getting low, and the engine seized. I git it from an auction so i can't ask the owner what are the problems. I had a look at it and i've found sand in the coolant, and it was smelling like fish.... maybe the last owner went in the ocean with this jeep. You think that could cause a problem for the engine ti stop while driving, mostly when i was pushing the brakes. First tought was that the thermostat or the water pump is broken, or the engine may be cloged somewhere so I got them all out and wash with a hise the engine and the radiator. And had a look at the thermostat and water pump, but they look like they work. Not sure about the thermostat, it opens, not too much i think, about 2-3mm when the water is about to boil, so i judge it opens at 90° C. And i got some cylinder misfire, cyl 2 misfire detect -pending fault, and cyl 7 misfire detect on red code. Can you help me with some advises please? I would really apreciate. Thank you

Sounds like you got several problems going on at the same time. You said the motor seized that wouldn't be good. My first thoughts were you got a blown head gasket. Is it using coolant in other words is there any coolant coming out of the exhaust. Doesn't sound like the thermostat is opening like it should. On the misfire I would check the wiring at the coils first. Who knows how long it's been since they change spark plugs if ever. You could also try moving the coils to a different cylinder and see if the code goes to that cylinder then you would know the coil was bad. Hope some of this helps good luck

So, a few months ago,I asked a question of Martin on this video, and he was kind enough to reply, concerning the fact that after I put this super damper in 25% underdrive pulley on my 2000 WJ 4.7, I experienced overheating issues. I could solve it by turning the heater on full blast, which told me that perhaps the cooling system just could not keep up after reducing the size of the pulley by 25%. however, Martin had not experienced the same issue, so I could began looking for other culprits, so if you are having overheating issues after installing this part, here's what I did just so you have the information. I've replaced the radiator, put in a new thermostat, flushed the system entirely, bought and installed a new water pump, and still had an issue with it overheating. I live in Texas, and it would do fine in stop-and-go traffic and in town traffic, but as soon as I hit the highway at 75 to 85 miles an hour, it would creep up to 215, 220, until I turned on the heater to blow off the excess heat, then it would return to 210. I even bought and installed one of those solid aluminum 2 core radiators off of eBay, from GPI racing. Thing is beefy, and I was quite impressed. Everything lined up perfectly. Although, you do have to bend out the core support a tiny bit at the edges of the radiator, since it is about an additional inch-and-a-half thicker than stock. This did seem to help, and definitely kept it right at 210 in the morning time, but as soon as the heat crept back up, so did the engine's temp at highway speeds. However, upon closer inspection after I went back to see what the problem could possibly be now that it had a new radiator, I noticed something. The genius engineers who designed this vehicle, of course put the AC condenser directly in front of the radiator, and even though I put the new radiator in, I hadn't looked all that closely at the condenser. it actually looks like it's quite clogged up, which could explain a lot about the airflow quality not being good enough to keep the coolant cool, because it's being blocked off by the condenser, which, if it's really bad, acts like a wall in front of the radiator. So, I'm going to install a new condenser on my AC system, and also put in a flowkooler high flow water pump. They're a bit pricey, at a hundred and thirty bucks, but it would be worth it to keep the vehicle nice and cool. Increase performance often results in the need for increased cooling system efficiency. I'm hoping these next two steps work, but hopefully this information helps anyone out there experiencing similar issues.

@martinbuilt

Amazing that you're having this much trouble keeping your engine cool. I did also replace the radiator on mine I found it clogged with dirt in that area with the metal bumper support sits directly in front of the radiator and AC condenser. Now that I replaced the hydraulic cooling fan with an all-electric the engine runs extremely cool I haven't seen temperatures higher than 200 and that is on days of 113 degrees out here in Las Vegas. You'll have to let me know if that aluminum radiator holds up I've had bad luck with the Champion aluminum radiator that I installed in my XJ I've gone through three of them. I'm done with champion.

@@martinbuilt I am a bit perplexed by it as well. I have also installed the fuel injectors that you had in another one of your videos, and an CAI from Airaid. I am running out of ideas as to what the issue is, unless there is something causing the engine to work harder than I think it is. My mileage seems to be around 15-17 MPG average, so it doesn't seem to be getting bad mileage. I already have a new cat back exhaust, and the cat was replaced at the same time. My AC system currently needs to be replaced, but even though the compressor does not work, it still spins freely and doesn't seem to hinder the engine. I have the combination mechanical and electric fans on my Jeep, and it still can't keep cool at highway speeds. Thought about replacing the mechanical fan with an electric one, but I have not found a ready-made kit for such a conversion, and I don't have anywhere to do my own fab work right now. My next planned step will be to try putting on the flowkooler water pump, and see if that helps. It's a less expensive option before I replace the AC system in a month or two. If that still doesn't work, I may have to finally bite the bullet and let a shop take a look at it. Knowing my luck, they'll figure it out in about 3 minutes and charge me $600 to fix it, and it'll be something small and stupid. I can tell you that the radiator I put in, which was a GPI Racing product, ( www.ebay.com/itm/2-row-Aluminum-Radiator-for-JEEP-GRAND-CHEROKEE-WJ-WG-4-7L-V8-1999-2000-99-00-AT/262558754225?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908105057%26meid%3D3247e5f8a1ce41b99aedccad4689b68f%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D15%26sd%3D262558754225%26itm%3D262558754225%26pg%3D2481888&_trksid=p2481888.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3Aa97f094c-bd57-11e9-8a9f-74dbd180440a%7Cparentrq%3A8821547e16c0a9e42e4f3f54fffc02ca%7Ciid%3A1 ) seems very well built, was easy to install, and definitely does help the vehicle stay cooler longer. It doesn't start to overheat now until the temp hits around 85 on the highway. I installed it this last weekend, with no issues. All the fittings lined right up, except for it being a little tight around the core support, which just needed to be adjusted with a hammer a bit. I have not heard anything positive about the champion line of radiators either. Each time it overheats, it always cools back down when I turn on the heater full blast, even while I am still on the freeway, which seems to indicate a problem with airflow. I will update after installing a new condenser and the flowkooler pump.

@@martinbuilt Update: Since my last post, driving under normal and some off road conditions. The new radiator works extremely well. Also removed the old AC condenser. Definitely was a factor. It was warped and partially clogged. Been driving without it entirely, as a complete new AC system is on the way. No overheating in 100+ degree weather as long as it was under 2200 RPM's. At highway speeds over 75 MPH, there was still overheating, but not as significant as before. Pulled and inspected spark plugs and coils, none showed abnormal wear. It may be that at higher RPM's the stock water pump just simply does not rotate fast enough to keep up, with the 25% under drive pulley, while ambient temperatures are higher than 90F (average it has been in my area for weeks). Hoping the new Flowkooler at the end of the month will fix that. Side note, when I had the cat replaced a few weeks ago, the mechanic who inspected it said there were multiple cylinders with slight misfire. Not enough to set off a CEL, but enough for his diag machine to notice. Immediately pulled my plugs and re-gapped all of them. None were far off of .040, factory recommended gap. I run OEM champion copper's. One factor may be that when I originally got the vehicle, I replaced all of the coil packs with new coil packs with lifetime warranty autozone models, not mopar, as the mopar coil packs were 3 times as expensive. I may have to go ahead and spend the extra money if the coil packs prove to be part of the issue.

I put vents in my hood to evacuate under hood air. With the WJ's unibody design there is no gap between a body and frame for air to escape and the 4.7 is really up under the cowl not to mention pretty much stuffed in there side to side. The biggest fan in the world will only pull a limited amount of air into the engine compartment through the radiator if the air already under the hood cannot easily escape. My coolant temp dropped from around 210 in summer to 195, even pulling a 4000 lb trailer though the Arizona mountains. The AC worked better also. The real tell was hot much hot air comes out them when stopped. With the engine hot and fan running I could not keep my hand over the hood vent, the air rushing out was way too hot. Even with the engine shut off when hot the amount of hot air escaping through the vents was amazing!

Do you have an Instagram? I have some questions. Is that a 4.7HO? What tune or tuner/programmer works on the HO PCM? What mods aside from that grabber intake and pulley is done to yours in the video?

@martinbuilt

I do have a Instagram I have not been on it in years. Yes you can do a tune on a HO engine. Look into SCT programmers. Check out Air Ram Performance. I have done HO cams, upgraded the fuel injectors, Doug Thorley Tri y headers with 3in exhaust Flowmaster and a MagnaFlow high-flow cat. Recently I also installed the new Mission Weapon X stage 2 coils. I've also installed the 08 intake manifold and a custom build 75 mm throttle body. I will be installing the 08 camshafts and then I'm going to do the tune using a SCT programmer.

martinbuilt Sup Martin, Flow here again, I've done the Tri Y's except I did a resonator delete along with a muffler delete cause I wanted it to sound a little on the loud side. Still have cats on the new wj overland I have now. And the torque snip just like the Laredo. I have the H.O engine I've been meaning to do the diy ram air intake you did but the more and more I watch I get more curious as to how much power you are making. (If you don't mind lol)

martinbuilt I have an 02 HO, currently stock except a Y-pipe back full 3” into a Borla muffler. You said in another vid that the 08/09 intake mani is better than even the 02? The 08/09 cans are a direct bolt in to the 99-04 4.7? What fuel injectors did you use? In this vid were you floored during the pulls? I will also be looking for that 454 throttle body, my local junkyard has hundreds of the GM trucks there. And, forgive me for asking, are you the same Martin that built/build the Martin Saine trannys? Any specific model of programmer for the SCT programmer?

No I am not that Martin. Yes the 08 plus camshafts are a direct bolt in for the 99 through 07 4.7. Yes I was floored during those pulls. I have the SCT 3200 programmer. I am running the Denso 12582704 injectors. They are 264 CC I believe that comes out to right at 25 lb.
