You could always go to a pick and pay and get one then send it out for the boring when it is returned then ship the one off the XJ back for the core charge.

I can send you a 62mm for $130 shipped.
When you return a core, I will refund you $25.

There was someone on here that would bore them to 60mm for $35 plus core. I can't remember who it was.

If your going to buy a throttle body THIS IS the way to go.
I'm currently running his 62mm throttle body right now and it has a 7% increase in flow over just removing the inside taper from the bore.
