The collection in the museum is not even half of what he used to own before his death. Most of his cars were auctioned off decades ago. He was a pretty collector.

 

I'd love it if my XJ had the SOUND of a V8, V8 GC's sound awesome with Flowmasters, even the little 4.7's in the WJ's.

 

My V8 sounds good with a Flowmaster.

 

No room for a Flowmaster.....


Oh...Almost forgot!


V-8 in an XJ?!?!?
It'll fold like a taco!

It'll explode and kill a bunch of Nuns and Orphans!

Only a crazy-man would attempt something this foolish!

 

I agree with you lol

 

Yep. Glad I went through it in 1975 or so.

 

The ZJ has a V8 option (including the 5.9L) with basically the same structure and they don't fold like a taco or explode. As long as you don't go too nuts you should be fine, if you're putting in anything more powerful than a stock LS1 you should probably do frame stiffeners though.

 

Nope....Xj's will fall apart if you try to put a V8 in 'em.

 

Why am I getting this feeling that you have an XJ with a V8?

 

You sir are a fail, everyone know a xj will fold like a taco if you put a v8 in it, just the same as removing the doors, it'll fold like a taco,

 

Welp now I' never going doorless!!!!!

 

 

what did you get your 5.3 out of? Link me to your thread! I can't find it again
JK I found it lolol. I'm doing a 5.3 XJ when I find a good unibody base

If I wanted a Jeep with a V8 I would have bought a zj or wj or kept my xk . I like the I 6 . If you swap KEEP IT JEEP ! You put chevy Motors in chevys ! If you want a 5.3 ls put it in a small blazer ! Just my .02 .
