Does anyone here have a 84 or 85 2.5L XJ or MJ?

I need some info on the carb and intake manifold off of one. Pictures would help a ton!!!

edit: I've been working on this for a good 20 mins, can't seem to find any good pics or further information on this.

Why in the world would you want to ditch fuel injection to go to a carb?

I'm looking into going to propane.

that'd be really neat... I do believe that propane has a higher octane rating, and can run at a higher compression ratio than the cheapie gas that 2.8s (in stock form) happily drink.

oh... it's a 2.5L (basically a 4.0 minus two cylinders with a different bore/stroke I think...) but in my Chiltons wagoneer/comanche/cherokee manual (book 40602, it has a red ZJ on the front if you want to find one for yourself; much better than haynes manuals fyi)

Here's what it says...
carter YFA for the 2.5L and a Rochester 2se or a E2se for the GM 2.8v6

as for the carter carbs...
as for factory (running gasoline) settings, it goes float level is .6 inches, choke valve clearance is .240 inches, fast idle cam setting index is .175 inches, fast idle speed 2300rpm.

I did find an interesting website called www.gotpropane.com
