After Kevin and I swapped the VAN drivetrain into a disabled vet's 56 Desoto, I had to find a ride home. So i bought this vintage "turn key" 1983 Jaguar XJS with a 350 small block swapped into it with no title. Needless to say, nothing goes as planned....

When I was 15, my dad bought a 76, xjs v12 same color, for 15,000 Canadian. That was in 87. He had it blown apart and a custum cherry gold flake paint job lovingly sprayed on. He died in 93 on the opposite side of my country, and I never knew what happened to it, (it had the awesome quad headlights too) . This video has filled me with nostalgia, thanks guys.

Bought a Z28 with an LT in it years ago and drove from Reno to Vegas. "needed a starter". Starter was broken into 3 pieces. It hydrolocked on a cyl which explained the starter, so off to Summit to get an injector. Off to Vegas - hydro'd again. Turns out the fuel pressure regulator was shot feeding 60psi gas into the intake through the vac hose. Food for thought.

I am in the process of "restoring" a 1973 Jaguar XJ12 that had an old smog era 350 + TH350 from a truck sloppily installed in it. The Chevy powerplant now runs pretty well with a new intake, carb, and electric waterpump but the body and interior is really rough. Seeing other Jags with American hearts motivates me to continue fixing mine. Keep up the great videos and I look forward to the next one, sir!

When I worked at the gm dealership back in the 90s, those Bosch injectors in those LT1 engines if you ran a high concentration of ethanol (back then, there was no standard for the ethanol concentration, you could have 10, 12, even 18% ethanol) the high ethanol concentration would strip the shellac off the injector coil windings causing the injector to short and run like crap. Also, the mass airflow sensor used a heated wire like a light bulb filament and it would break causing poor running and stalling. The test was if you rapped on the maf with a screwdriver and if it died, the maf was bad.
