XKS Motorsport
has done quality Jaguar engine work for more than 40 years. We know the XK engine and how to
repair them right. The newest XK engine is now over 30 years old and many are 50 or more. A lot of heads have seen years of

abuse and rebuilding at the hands of the inexperienced. You will see by the detailed listing below that all the guess-work has

been replaced with expertise.

While not all cylinder heads are in great shape, many are candidates for a routine service based on typical needs. Bear in mind
each cylinder head can have its own combination of problems, so the rst step is a close inspection. The parts and procedures

shown here will apply to most heads.
