Found bolt thightening sequence/procedure and torque specs for the intake/exhaust. perormed procedure and now starts and idles perfectly. thanks for the help..............jeepers helpin jeepers.

My xj is going under the knife too,could You show me where You found these torque specs?

Just finished installing new head in my 95 XJ and found the Haynes manual very helpful. It has all the torque specs and procedures in it. All is going well for me so far so I think that manual can be of some help to you.
