You want to put a 302C into an EB...
I certainly hope there's to be some stretching of the crank involved beforehand! |

I think it's against the law to put an older engine in a newer car.

I dont understand why people put XF fronts on, it really doesn't look any better than the XD.
XE is the better of the lot IMO. Alot tougher! I wouldnt even bother thinking about doing the swap..alot cheaper to find a EB 5.0l.

do up the xd, so much better then the xf just dump it on its guts and some nice rims, dont know if they make the clear indicators for them but if so chuck those on and a nice sounding exhaust you got your self a nice cruiser and burnout machine.

The XD was the last good looking model of the 'X' series, IMHO. The front end had nice clean lines, it wasn't distorted by the gradual bonnet wrap-overs that we have now. A straight XD, with all the fine detail attended to, will look fantastic!
