Yes you can do it, but the pre 2000 don't have the threaded holes for the coil packs, and you will need the 2000 sensors/pcm/and harness.

Yeah I'm thinking of and HEI too and I might go that route. My 97 is hard to start and I'm going to go through the motor soon. So I was thinking of updating to a newer ignition system.
Thanks guys

coilpack upgrade?
need an coilpack uprade for my 01 xj, thinking of using chevy ls6 6.0 year 06-08 coils with msd complete ignition/coil/rev limiter complete kit. i was jus wondering if i need to replace my computer with a new aftermarket or jus upgrade mine with a programmer/chip? i know i can use chevy parts on my 4.0, pirate4x4.com has a forum with the "project bonneville comanche" extrudabody.com has the price for the custom "jeep Inline 6 45mm ITB Kit Complete" for $2,000 which is used in the project comanche.
