Should work without any problems. But to be sure change the intake manifold with all sensors and the coolant temp sensor too. Not sure if there was a change in part numbers, but better safe than sorry.
yeah was planning on swapping the intake. the Xj i got came from the south so there is no rust at all. The replacement motor I got came from upstate NY so it has salt corrosion all over the bolt on parts. I know The head on the motor that came with the xj had been rebuilt not that long ago so i am just going to bolt that one on the new motor.
Sounds like a plan. Good luck
