Jaguar XKE Series 2   Message List

Re: [TBIinjection] Jaguar XKE Series 2

I will convert at least one of my XKE's to EFI this winter. My present plan
is to use what I learned from fuel injecting the triumph 6 and the MGB 4 cyl
cars I've done to date. I posted the details of these on my journal at
http://www.mgexperience.net/journal/scotabbott, and some additional info on a
triumph site.
In essence, I've modified Zenith stromberg carbs to act like fuel
injection devices. On the series 2 jags (I have 3 of these cars) there are 2
Zenith Stromberg 2 inch carbs, so I'll do these like I did with the Triumph 6
but use properly sized injectors for the 4 liter displacement. I will also do
the "from below" style carb body conversion so they look like stock carbs. I
expect to use an XJ6 electronic dizzy amd a megasquirt ECU. Yhe converted cars
I've done work very well and were inexpensive to do. The jags will be, too.
Incidentally, the MG experience journal postings include patterns for the
parts needed, and the parts are easy to make (I show how I did it)
Email me for more infor if you're interested.

The Zenith-Stromberg carbs are 1.75 inch rather than 2 inch on the late sixties and early seventies Jags. That is why the carb model designation is a 175CD. ...

I musta had a brain fart. Im quite aware of the ZS crbs on my E's, and that they are used on early XJ6's. I made some adapters for original 2 inch SU's and...
