well she's all done. started right up with no problems, did the break in, which was keep it around 2,000 rpm for 20 min and then let it cool down and re-torque the head bolts. then i took it for a short run to check out the trans and all worked fine. woot!
But it seems that while the jeep sat for those 4 years or so mice made a home inside the vent works, doh, and it not a good smell! so now im working on getting the vent system out so i can do a real good clean up on it, so far i got the dash out and working on getting the vent housing out....but not too big of a deal. break lights and turn signals didn't work so got to figure that out also, hopefully its just a fuse or a ground wire
