"Jaguar" cam cover sticker
"Jaguar" cam cover sticker
Heh guys.
Just curious. Did all models of XJS have the Jaguar cam cover sticker installed, and on both sides?
Mine is missing however I think that maybe it just came off over the years.
I was thinking of getting a set (plenty available) however just wanted to see if it was "period correct"

You may as well get the 6 litre ones, if you've that much money to burn!
They seem to be horrendously expensive!

its the same decal as used on the ' tool box ' as well
and yes, all V12 cars had a decal on each rocker cover ( Daimlers had their own version )

your mixed up
the ones shown above ( and the ones with the part number ) are for the cam covers and they are foil stickers ( under the supply fuel regulator )
the ones that are ' red ' like on my car are for the intake manifold and are as you say around £60 UK or more , but funnily enough are cheaper than the standard black ones fitted to the later 6ltr cars
Both can be seen in this picture

Would I have enough left over for a can of Red Spray Paint?
Thanks to Brake Buster I have an awesome link. Seems cheaper straight from the source than anywhere else but I could be wrong:
Cam cover sticker(8.37 AUD):
Camshaft and Tappet Block-5.3 Litre - Parts For XJS from (V)139052 to (V)179736 | Jaguar Heritage Parts AU
Black V12 mainifold plate ($57 AUD each):
Inlet Manifold-5.3 Litre - Parts For XJS from (V)179737 to (V)226645 | Jaguar Heritage Parts AU
I just received my intake manifold plates and cam cover stickers from Jaguar Heritage. The manifold plates come with some adhesive on the back you peel off but I am assuming that is because the intake manifolds they are supposed to sit on have a groove.
Mine are the old school type with the fins. Would you guys use RTV as well to stick them on top of those fins or would the adhesive suffice you think?
Can't wait to glam up my engine
