Has anyone had both upper and lower pulley upgrades done on their XJR ?
Besides upgrading the cooling system is there anything else that should be modified to cope with the boost ? Head gasket for example ?

A number of years back there were a series of posting from NormanD about his tuned X100 XKR, it might be worth looking at what he did to extract lots more power from his engine, I think he started with a 4L one originally.

Yes, Norman. He was very helpful around 8-9 years ago soon after I bought it. I remember reading about his XK in one of the magazines.

Good grief has it really been that many years ago. I suppose it must have been.
