Its really a gm 2.8 v6 and its kinda gutless.Is it reliable yes and no depends who you ask.But its 29 years old things dont work like they use to with age.I wouldn't buy a early v6 xj unless i going to v8 swap it or its been done.

The engine is pretty poor but you can swap in other V6 engines with the same bolt pattern. The front clip on the 1st gen XJs is also very short (did not have the 4.0) which limits your options a bit.

Ahhhh Thanks guys. I found one locally in decent shape.
When I saw the V6 I was hoping for a bit more power than the I6.
