Pollard provides photos of the engines and the cars they powered, and offers identifying specs and production changes. Here Pollard follows the XK from its initial conception and production to its final use in the mid-1980s. It still ranks as one of the most famous British engines having been used in a number of specials and kit cars. The 6-cylinder XK engine was fitted to Jaguars for nearly 30 years, from the mid 1950s to the mid 80s. Step-by-step illustrations show how to restore and rebuild an XK engine to its original specs.
Thin Gruel Brian Newton Not at all the full-on definitive tome claimed. A bit of historic fluff and a very elementary picture-book shop manual. I'm feeling well fleeced at $168.92. Little doubt that there will soon be a reprint for 1/10th the price.. Must have Jaguar book Phillip Karam I don't write reviews, I only restore Jaguars, and for that, this is a 'must have' book, with the latest of information on XK engines.
