I used a felpro stock replacement and have a slight leak. I'll switch it out to a mopar eventually. Good to hear russ has no issues with them
The last Felpro I installed leaked. This is my first attempt with a genuine Mopar, so I’m hopeful.
Found this bolt. Smells like it was internal, but doesn’t fit the old camshaft, so that’s not where it’s from. Any ideas?
I’ll double check, but I’m pretty sure those bolts are accounted for. And it’s a manual.

im in the middle of doing a 5.0l stroker kit on mine and i didn't see any bolts that looked similar to that when I stripped mine. I'd assume possible crank pulley bolt, flywheel bolt, motor mount or other accessories?
Crank pulley bolt is installed, motor mounts are coarse thread, and all six flywheel bolts are accounted for

Engine to transmission bolts? Dust shields on transmission? What about timing cover bolts? I recall seeing 2 weird ones on mine when I took it apart, however mines 04
Stroker engine is going in the Jeep this weekend!
Fired the engine and got through cam break in! But she’s running like shit. Rough idle, surging under throttle, and a distinct “puffing” from the exhaust at low RPM. Cam/crank offset is within 0.5* of expected, grounds are clean. Any ideas of what else to look at? Or is it a tuning issue?
Compression test? Vacuum gauge?
What injectors? What cam?
It should learn a mild stroker within a couple run cycles
Found 1 issue. Injector plugs 1 & 2 were swapped. Now she idles around 1k rpm. Still rough and noisy.

Weird residue on #2 plug. Oil or water? Scoped all six cylinders. Looks like a little bit of oil or water sitting on top of each piston?
Fixed! She runs!
Fuel-fouled spark plug from the mid-wired injectors. Replaced the plugs, reset the computer, and now she purrs like a leopard.
