“Also of interest, he will be working on a 6.5l - 7.0l diesel version of the Jaguar V12. He estimates around 200 hp and
envisages it will be used for marine applications.”

Mike Morrin talked with White, and reported that “Bill has got most of the parts ready for his quad cam V12; he has
(typically) done a very thorough job, involving new castings for the timing cover and each end of the 'turned' XJ40
head. I presume this will become another standard conversion.”

According to John Horner, carries “Shop manuals; parts books (a great resource); sets of service bulletins; also owner’s
manuals for most Jags. The shop manual, parts manual, and Borg-Warner transmission manual were all good quality
full size reprints. The reprints are spiral bound, which is very practical for an owners manual. Also, the quality of
printing is quite good with all diagrams very clear and readable.”

MODELS

It is not likely you will find a model of the XJ-S in your local K-Mart. However, if you find a hobby shop that

will special-order models, Hasegawa makes several XJ-S models including some models of XJ-S race cars. Hasegawa
model CA-1 is a 1:24 scale stock street model. This is apparently a model of the Japan- or UK-issue car, as it is right-
hand drive, the wipers park to the right, and it has the European style single headlight units. For those of us who
haven’t built a model in 20 years, the price causes sticker shock: about $25. But it is remarkably detailed and accurate,
including a complete interior with all gauges, switches and pedals, and an engine accurate enough for you to learn
where things are you can’t see in your engine compartment. The rear suspension is complete with individual shock
absorbers. The wheels are the older 5-point domed alloy style. The tires are rubber and actually say “Pirelli P5” and
“215/70VR15” on them.
