A very interesting thread right here! I am an unrepentant swapper myself, having first done a DIY 350/TH350-240Z swap back in the '80s, and a JTR 454/700R4-'86 VDP swap back in the '90s.
I am another one hoping that Jaguar Specialties comes up with the interface for the 4.2 XK8 cars as I currently own a 2004 convertible for which I covet a 6 liter/6L80 propulsion unit.
I live in Comox and travel to Winter Harbour for fishing numerous times throughout the summer. We hangar the boat with Joel at Coal Harbour during the season. Perhaps we will run into you at some point next season, Skooba Kowboy.

Well here we are, 12 years after the conversion and...
...the jag runs perfectly!
Thank you Andrew from Jaguar Specialties.
Have a great spring and summer everyone. With the top down the wind is once again blowing through my hair, "both of them at my age" LOL.
Happy trails everyone!
