    Well i found the differences between the 4.1L and 3.8L V6

    It is the stupid Oil pickup :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
    The 4.1L is in a slightly differnt location, so now my brand new 231 oil pan will not fit. So i have to go get a 231 pickup so i can fit the stupid pan :( Oh the fun things you find out.

    The worst thing is i did a spot check on monuting surface and depth and it all matched except the 4.1L pan is longer in the sump area. Just something i didnt notice, until i was under the jeep putting new pan up to bolt in :( but i got the intake on, will tork it own tomorrow after the RTV cures, and hopefully the store has the pickup in stock
