Can I upgrade a 1998 VDP engine with a 2000 or newer engine??
My engine is knocking like crazy. My mechanic wants to replace the engine. In doing so, I'd rather add a newer model engine like a 2k. I'm sure this is possible but would like to hear suggestions or if anyone in the forums has done it succesfully. I'd like to stick with a jag engine and not a modified chevy LOL!

The AJ26 and AJ27 engines are similar but not the same. Do a search on this forum and you will find all the info you need. I can be done but you will need to swap alot of parts from the 1998 AJ26 to the newer AJ27.
Intake cams, front cover, VVT components, torque conveter drive plate, intake assy, etc.

If I need to change all those parts with the AJ27, I'd rather upgrade to the 99 AJ26. Parts are really expensive. Would I still need to swap the engine computer as well? I'm hoping not. Thanks for all your help.
