ive got an XJS. details in the sig. doesnt hardly run. the EFI is causing me an otherworldly kind of headache. been working on it day and night since 03/16/12.

i found a full set of series 3 XKE manifolds on the interweb for $70 bucks that im thinking about picking up, but i cant find any side drafts to go with it.

thought maybe any E type guys whove upgraded and gone EFI or aftermarket might be willing to sell them.

or maybe someone can point me in the right direction.

 

Here's a wild suggestion - instead of Strombergs - Mikuni carbs:
Performance Parts - Vintage Performance Developments
These guys sound like they know their stuff.

 

thanks for the post. i think my dad upgraded his harley Evo to that same carb. i think his is a 74mm

 

How's about really wild, and add 6 Webers, as in Countach?

Webcon.co.uk might be able to help, although I can't imagine it would be cheap.

They do list Jaguar XJ 5.3 V12 conversions.

 

I like the Weber idea. May not be ideal in these times of high fuel prices but it would be fun. A Countach used to be good for about 10mpg(imp) about the same as a Mk 10 Jag (at reasonable cruising speed).

 

well, i would love a weber setup, but the going price for one of those is more than my whole XJS.
