I would prefer the XK150 engine in an XK150 and not in a Healey. Btw. This
engine is far superior to any Healey engine and a real "Bella Macchina" as the
Italian say. Even the chassis/body workmanship and road holding of an XK150 is
worlds better than of an Healey. But the car is not my taste. But in a Healey
I want to have this lump of BMC engine.

Why in the world would you say that? No 140's, but having had 4 Jags with the
6 clyinder engines in them, i can say they are VERY dependable, strong and
trouble-free.

Looks nicely done but having had a XK140-MC I wouldn't have it. We use to joke
the Jag would pass anything on the road but a mechanic.
