    SOHC ...any suggestion

    Your not gonna get that low end feel with a 4.0 unless its cold (motor) and temp ive noticed, via OHC. Unless you redo the gears. a tune, good plugs wires and intake exaust helps tho.

    SOHC ...any suggestion

    Your on the right track where you are. Theres not alot more you can do without putting alot of money into it via cams s/c turbo etc. Make sure your timming chain tensioner is replaced. thats a key part int eh function of the motor.

    running hot idling high

    Id have your thermostat replaced and flush your coolant. About the idle, idk. Id start by checking all your sensors, MAF, IAC and what not. Give them a good cleaning with maf parts cleaner.
