Hi guys.
I know this has been talked about a million times but I’d like to have my own thread for my build as I’m new to the builder scene.
I have a 2000 xj sport which I just the blew the main bearing and head clean apart. Smoked half the town out it was pretty legit. Also managed to lose the rear driveshaft now I can get a real one.
I just bought a 98 motor yesterday it has a 0630 head and an aw4 transmission bolted up I paid 450$ it cranks over with power to the starter. It has an exhaust manifold as well as the intake manifold both are stock.
What do I need to Take from the 2000 to make it fit. I would like to make it run coil packs instead of a distributor. I know I need to make a mount for that.
Any information helps thanks.
