I've not had a lot to do with D3s, but they are all 2.7 V6 Jaguar engines I think ( maybe I'm wrong, but someone will say) It would take a lot of work to fit one.

The D3 2.7 TDV6 is bascially the jag unit, but with a single turbo - not the jags two turbos - if memory is correct.
Like most things in life, I'm sure if you were determined enough (and had enough money) anything is possible... but whether it would be worth it or not..

We only seem to get the Transit engined Jags in Dave...:rolleyes:
Our favourite pastime at the moment is the crank damper and belt tensioner kits. When I find out who forgot to leave a gap for the tensioner to come out.....:banghead2 :banging:
Chris ( You designed that, you did, Dave face....:snig:)

TDV6 Jag as in S-Type and XJ, oh and the new XF...
I don't think it was ever fitted to the x-type....
nop didn't design anything for any jag ever...... but hey I've got broad shoulders.. tis all my fault :D

Don't think they did Dave, it's just a Mondeo though... same problem with the belt and tensioner.. funnily enough, the Jag kit comes with Ford stamped on evrerything and half the price.:)
The S types we get in are usually petrols. We had a batch of XKRs from Ireland a while ago. Phenominally quick, but a hard ride.
Chris ( I will always blame you for the X type Dave ) :)
