I worked for Jeep for a while and have worked in the Jeep industry for the past 8+ years (still working there). The 4.7L is not faster than the 5.9L. The 5.7L Hemi - let's say 2005 model year for example, is even with mine. The 2005 model year (for example) Grand Cherokee (WK) with a 4.7L HO is 2 tenths of a second slower than the 5.9L & 5.7L.
Here are some numbers for you - 0-60 - 1/4 mile - source:
1996 Jeep Cherokee (4.0L H.O.) - 10.6 - 17.7 (None Identified)
2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Ltd (5.7 Hemi) - 7.0 - 15.2 (C&D Nov 04)
1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited (5.9L) - 6.8 - 15.2 (MT Jan 98)
1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee Orvis (5.2L) - 8.3 - 16.4 (MT Jun 95)
2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited- (4.7L H.O.) 6.7 - 15.4 (Motor Trend)
2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 - 13.2 (R&T Nov '06)
Where are your numbers from?
