Differences between X300 and XJ40 frame rails and engine compartment
I have read something online that seems to imply that X300 body structure is very similar to XJ40. I am contemplating swapping a 1994-ish GM LT1 V8 motor into an X300. LS1 is a better engine, but I don't think it will fit. An LT1 swap into XJ40 has been done before by Jaguar specialties. I am wondering if an X300 swap is possible.

Just weighing up some options really, yes, it is a strong bottom end with large main bearings, the 4.0 has a forged steel crankshaft and forged H beam rods and a closed deck steel lined block from factory, so tough? Very, with quality bearings used too..It's also a good engine to use as a basis for a twin turbo or single twin scroll may also be a idea with fueling/intake mods.....
