Default Will a 99 xj motor go in my 94xj?

Hey everyone, I'm new to this forum and excited to get some advice from anyone. I am about to buy a 99 xj motor. Will it go into my 94? If so what will I have to change if anything?

Yes. Swap intake and accessories as needed. The 99 should have a distributor and not coil packs. 2000 and up is coil pack

What would that include accessory wise? From my understanding the 99 is an OBD2. So what does that mean I'd have to switch over?

yes, it will the only mod i had to do is relocate the temp sensor that was in the head on my 1994 to the water neck where the thermostat is because the 1999 head had no hole for it and i was not brave enough to drill and tap the head so i drilled and tapped the water neck instead just in case i dicked it up . i also ran the 99 intake since it is a upgrade
