Default Greetings From Frozen Iowa!

Hello everyone! I am new to Jag ownership, bought a '01 XJ8 VDP in June of last year. I really love the car, but must confess that for a few years I've been planning the purchase as a donor car for an LSx V8. I hope this doesn't make me a heretic! I purchased a LS2/4L65E almost 2 years ago and now have it running on my run-in stand. So, the Jag 4 liter is ready to come out and the 6 liter dropped in. Anyway, I hope to learn a lot from this forum!

Hello,
Numerous members here have exchanged the Jaguar engine for an alternative of their preference; usually, but not always, for a Chevy of some sort.

It's YOUR car, and you have the right to do whatever YOU want to do with it.
I wish you success in your engine swap.

Welcome to the forums from ElinorB.
