    Looks like a great plan. Did you consider an emergency isolation switch on the outside somewhere in the vicinity?

    Are you planning on the 16" replica wheels from RCR? Or another source, many of which are 15". could also affect caliper clearance on the wheel ID

    I had acquired different jets with the suspicion that the "as-Delivered" jetting from Pierce Manifolds wouldnt work. But it really did work on the run stand. Engine is now set in the chassis for fitting and completion. But Michigan's clampdown has halted progress.

    As you will learn. Weber Carbs work with quite low fuel pressure! Maybe lots of flow, but low pressure. I would be very interested in the specific body, venturi, jets you are using. I have a stock 4.2 from an '83 XJ6. Pierce manifolds was my source for the manifold and three 45DCOE's. I...

    Is that "plomb" metric or imperial? Need to know that before moving forward with it!

    Chuck's Jaguar D Type Build

    A question we are dealing with is whether the 4.2 with the triple 45DCOE's will end up vertical or with some angle. RCR has reduced the height of the driver footbox for Weber clearance, but some access for the Webers is still desired. Having dealt with the accumulated residue in used 40DCOE's...
