Default Cherokee/Wrangler Motro swap HELP

Hey guys just wondering if i could get some help. I am close to buying a 4.6 stroker motor out of a 99 wrangler with a distributor and would like to install it into my 2001 cherokee with coil on plug set up what would i do about the ignition differance and what are your thoughts? I wanna run 4.56 gears on 33x12.5. im running 33s on stock 3.55 gears on a 4.5 inch lift with heavy bumpers and getting crapy fuel mph. Any advise would help Im mostly just trying to get good fuel effe. But would like more hp too...lol

I have bin told I can put the motor in with no problem putting the ciol on plug set up on it witch yes I kinda understand im just using the block everything else is already in my jeep but what about the spot the disributor goes do i just leave it in and not connected and then for the coil on plug set up I do need a crank shaft posision sensor correct? Can I just put one in?

I also have bin told I will need a header plate connector or something cause it won't line up with mine but I could just get a hole new Exhaust right? Headers and all.
