Your best bet might be a wrecked XJ from one of the Crazy Rays junk yards. Usually a good selection around

Less than 500 miles, $2500:

^Or he could take his $2500 and buy a whole new XJ, and then use the left over money to buy a used engine for the old one.

On another note, OP, what year are you replacing? You don't want to deal with converting the ignition system.

Try this.

Nice motor but not spending 2500 lol. I'm in the $500 or less range. I'll find something. There's a bunch of them out there!

Gianotti

Just wanna replace the engine no ignition just a quick motor to motor

Right, if you just want a quick drop-in swap, then you need one that uses a distributor if yours does, and one that doesn't if yours doesn't -- that's why I was asking what year your previous/original motor was.

Mines a 94 that's y I've been a little picky on finding a motor. So it drops right in

I wouldn't mind going to crazy rays, I just don't wanna chance getting a bad motor if I can't hear it run
