I had leaking freeze plugs and had to remove the intake/ exhaust manifold. That's how the gasket looked like. Strange thing, the Jeep ran great with it.
Hm, I don't see the image file: Http error

Re: Wrong intake manifold gasket
Without a picture, giving a wild guess...
The American Motors 4.2 inline 6 (source of the stroker crank) cylinder head had all the ports in a line. The 4.0 head ports have the intakes lifted. So, rectangle ports on your gasket could be low?

Thanks for your reply. I can't upload a picture. The site responds with "http error".

Re: Wrong intake manifold gasket
Sorry, guys, I realise this started a bit odd. Now I managed to upload the picture somehow. Here it is.
