I forgot about how low his Vette is we should go some where though. Or cruise the bikes or something you guys live right around the corner from me.

For sure man. We will be Rollin n ridin for sure. We can get some nice pics too

Well that's kinda lame.

I agree. Jaguars are not meant for serious modifications thus why limited parts and shops to work on them or let alone make parts for them

It's an Eaton M112, i find that really hard to believe. I don't know if the M90 puller will work with an M112, but i don't just have a 3 jaw puller, i have an Eaton specific tool. Those motherfuckers are on reallllll tight though, a few i've pulled have popped pretty good when they break loose.

Similar to a terminator then right? I'd think your puller would work. You have the zzp awesome one or the C lookin one?

 

[DanJ]

ZZP awesomeness

Not one pulley that has been pulled off ever came off clean or re-useable. And that us but shops and owners. The car will be like the bike. One Day stockish next day competley changed. Plus I don't want to dry the t bird why the jag would be all apart haha

 

[DanJ]

That is really peculiar, I am not really in the know but i find it completely absurd that Jaguar pressed a pulley onto an Eaton blower in the first place and that it didn't come from Eaton with the pulley on it, and if so, that they fit tighter than any other Eaton blower/pulley. what kind of puller are shops using? Are they bending the pulley? My stock one came off with a C shaped puller and bent the edge a bit. I wouldn't want to tackle it anyways but the puller i have looks like this and i have no idea how it would fuck a pulley up. my guess is that the Jaguar community hasn't exactly pulled nearly as many pulleys as say Cobra/Lightning/GTP owners and may be using a 3 jaw puller.

That's the bees knees yo

This is from several techs and euro shops. I found the write up before on how Jaguar did it what the used. The snouts are diffent than the cobras and lightnings. I asked and looked. The snouts for my car where made for the jags. There is one shop local that was doing a kb ts swap but stopped due to lack of demand for it but another shop did it for the XJR and is making over 550 to the wheels on a dynojet. It can be done but the trans and rear are unknown what they can handle. All the simple little mods I have planned will be more than enough for it then I can focus on the next car to pick up and build

Yes Joel, that puller works amazingly.

That is really odd, i wonder why they wanted a specific snout if it's a ford motor still.

It is really not a Ford motor as the block code is British. The trans is a Mercedes and the diff internals are the same as Aston Martin an a denso/Ford ECU that no Ford shop that can tune or read. I have a Eurpoean mutt.

No wonder that is such a nightmare for you to get parts/tuning for.

It's not like I was lying when I said before there is nothing out there really haha. It's just my dd though

 

[EmersonHart13]

My head hurts after reading all the hurdles that are involved.

Do you like it riski? Sounds like a pain to own....how reliable has it been?

Yea I like it and no issues. I'm not trying to make a race car or more than what it is suppose to be. Just want to get a lil' more power out of it and make it a bit nicer. Once I do the few things u want to do. My focus will shift onto a real project. I enjoy the fact that it is a rare car you don't hardly ever see and looks good and is peppy
