Jag V12 in a Wedge...

[Wedg1e]

... bet you were expecting a link

Wondering how feasible it might be. The Jag unit is quite long but so is the V8 by the time you take the drives at the front into consideration.
Could actually be an easier way to 5L than finding a tuned RV8

Having had a V12 Jag, and now owning a 4.0 Chim, I'd say that the RV8 is the better unit.

Lighter, spins up faster, more powerfull, and do you even need to ask about fuel consumption?

I know that this isnt exactly "What Car", but really, single figure MPG all the time does get a little tiresome.

Yes I know, but just for the hell of it... until I can find a Merlin

Wedgie, if you cant find a Merlin how about a 27L V12 Meteor in place of the Rover V8???

They already did that in 1989.

I've seen a v12 in a TR7 but don't think the Tiff is wide enough across the rails near the bell housing.

What about a supercharged Jag 4.2 V8?
