You shouldn't have to ask, but since you did, I would consider that to be the equivalent of a Porschev.

To understand me, however, is to know that I'm vehemently against SBC's in Jags. Yes, rebuilding a Jag motor is ridiculously expensive, (think along the lines of a 911$), but used motors are not.

Now, I could put a Ferrari motor in a hot rod and it's been done. But I couldn't put an American V8 in a Ferrari. And I wouldn't take the time and trouble to do a BMW or Jag V12.
