Title: Jaguar E Type fhc +V8/auto
Post by: 88v8 on November 04, 2015, 01:20:42 PM
What V8? Good question.
Clearly, the seller doesn't think much of it.
And the exhaust manifolds, unusual.

Anyway, the car itself doesn't look in bad shape, as far as one can see which isn't very far.

Be nice to keep it as it is. The world is not short of six-pot E Types.

Ivor,

Looks like a SBF with the exhaust flipped upside down.

Cheers

So, apart from looking rather odd, do you think that would inhibit the output to any great degree?

Actually, it would give the very poor Ford exhaust ports a straighter exit.
The power improvement would be minimal due to the parts used. But it would be there.
