An EF-El motor would be easier due to the sump being made from tin.
But anything is possible with enough $$$ and will... |
i was just interested in the block.
ie. would the EF heads/sump/crank etc fit onto an AU block? |
Head, rods and pistons can be used (they are different but fit).
sump and crank do not. |

i dont know why anyone would do this on a road car, if your refering to the 4.0l in a xf at the start of this sticky it is just a guide on problems you may encounter (in speedway carbys are more practical).
stockstandard can you edit and remove the 4.0l into x-series part of the sticky, its better to remove it an wait untill you do your write up on your 4.0l into x-series road conversion when its up and running  |

| At the start of the thread you forgot all about the AU ticky motors, in particular the AU VCT. |

| they were throttle body injected mate. two "injectors" controlled electronically. very primative but it works. it was standard on gl's to eb I but for some small amount of money you could option multipoint fuel injection. |
