They appear to fit well and I'm going to run with them as is, unless a hurdle presents itself down the road I'll then address whatever problem may be.

Thank you, those injectors may be pushing their limits on this build. I'll run them for now and see if they present and issue later.

Yeah, ended up going that route.

Question about this mod

The 4.0L XJR/XKR system looks very much the same as the 4.2L XKR, but the lower manifold is different as you see in your pics. Looks like you've got them mixed together.

The 4.2L XJR, S-Type R and XF SV8 is a totally different arrangement, not the one you want.

I'm following in Mjyk and other footsteps. I see that the 4.0 Jag Eaton and intercoolers have to stay together as well as the 4.2 pieces. Did we ever figure out if the 4.2 Eaton fit the BMW 540i or did the intake flange not line up correctly? If this is right then the only option is to pull a Eaton and intercoolers off of a Jaguar 4.0L?

Sincerely,

David Piel

I’m not a BMW guy but, I seem to recall another conversion guy on here asking questions about his. I *think* he had to have adapters made to make his fit. Search on here BMW & supercharger.

Advice

Hello Mykk

I’ve been looking at your forums and YT channel about this build. I know it’s been a few years since.

Is there anyway I can contact you to ask for Advice on the BMW M62 with the M112 Eaton SC build as I’m currently starting mine

thanks Sam
