Default Hello from Midwest

Just bought a XK convertible with bad engine for a LSx swap. Looking for lots of info about the typical pitfalls...and some interaction for parts swapping.

Thanks for all the future help!

Welcome to the forum!

Oh one other thing you need to put your car details in your signature. I am speaking of the Year, Make & Model. Without it you may not get the input you are looking for.

Please take a moment and read the information provided to you explaining the rules. Be patient and enjoy the site.

Welcome, nice looking ornament, hope you get her fixed soon.

In the General Tech help there is a Lincoln swap thread, OK a different car but a pretty decent read.
