stupid question but here goes. So if i have a 4.0l block that needs to be rebuilt, can i just bore/stroke to a 4.6L. I don't see why you couldn't. and I have read on other forums that you can get cams and injectors for the LR 4.6L (performance). Will the computer correct?

No, the 4.0 liners are too thin to bore. They are wet liners, and you will have all kinds of problems. Then to stroke, you change the crank. Not really worth it in my opinion. If you change your cam, injectors, port the intake, exhaust, and heads, you will still have to have your ECU chipped to benefit from it. Landzu has a chip and loves it, but they are pricey. He is building up an engine as we speak. Might PM nim to see if he has any more info.
