Hey a loacal salvage guy in my town has a 4.0L in his yard with no wiring, I blew my 4.2L up and can't find one anywhere, i was wondering if I can swap the intake manifold off my 4.2 and put it on the 4.0L and run it like that. If it will fit what kind fo problems will I run into? Jetting, timing and such....

Don't know if this helps, but I am running an 88 Yj 4.2 intake on a 96 4.0 head.

yes its doable with minor modifications. google "monsterslayer jeep", depending on your smog laws you can also go to an aftermarket 4 barrel intake and carb.
