Good luck getting in touch with them I tried all hours of the day for 5 days and nobody ever answered.... Needless to say I bought one from Advance Auto Parts for $1099.99 shipped to the store and returned the core there too so all i paid was about $5 in gas for shipping to and from my house. Of course I had to pay tax also but at 6% it's still cheaper than most shipping charges.

What would it take to put a LT1 & 700R4 & whatever tcase comes with it? Doable? I dont know, just thinking loudly.

its been done.... you better have time on your hands, $$ in the pocket, and a real attachment to your XJ to go that route, IMHO.... MC

Well, then it is out of the question. I have an opertunity to buy a complete totaled 96 xj. I am thinking just taking the whole engine tranny combo and putting it in. Comp swap and everything. Only problem is, it is an AX15 i have AW4. Is that doable?
