V8 XJ engine help
Hi,
I am attempting to fit a V8 XJ engine into a Mark 2.
Has anybody got any experience in doing this ?
Any assistance ( technical help, pitfalls, shortcuts, etc.) that can be given will be appreciated.
Best Regards
Bill Craig

I've read of a few V8 transplants into the MK2. very brave!

Welcome.
A guy here slotted a V12 into a MK2 many many years ago, that was BRAVE.
I believe it is still motoring around somewhere. Never seen it, only know of it.
The V8 should be a test of many talents, but very do-able.
