There isn't anything in Volvo 740's that I am aware of that would make a good injector swap for a '98 XJ. They will all fit physically but flow wise they are to far off stock.

This is actually incorrect and is the result of a misprint on the Bosch injector data sheet. The 702's are basically the same as the Ford "yellow stick" 710's or Volvo 746's.

Well let me ask also about my "99" 4.0 I was just getting ready to buy new injectors for it. What would be the best to order for direct plug & play or are there any multi-ports that are.

I did notice that on that list it was 43psi for those injectors listed and was a higher setting for the stock 99 does this need to be reset, of so how?

make sure you get more information than "great" fuel mileage. i have an f750 service truck that gets 4-6 mpg for work, so yes an xj getting 15 is great! But my integra that I drive when i dont need my service truck gets 30-34 mpg, so an xj getting the same 15 mpg would suck. just wanted to throw that out there.
dont expect miracles with the injector swap unless there is something extremely wrong with your stock ones.

Default jeep 703 injectors

im going with the 703 injectors.....will try over stock sieman injectors.....my jeep gets around 12 mpg and I know it should be getting around 16-17.....ive done everything I can possibly do but mileage still sucks.........also since my jeep is at my winter home in mexico gas down there is well over 4 bucks a gallon which is another bummer....need to get that mileage up somehow...
