I will like to know if there is sufficient time and what are the procedures for clearing of immigration and baggage collection

THANK YOU!
I would say no as you're going to be on a plane with a significant number of non-citizens in immigration as well as other flights arriving at a similar time. It could take you the whole 104 minutes just to clear immigration. And no CBP does not give priority to connecting passengers.

BTW you collect your baggage after passing through immigration.
