Fuel Injected V12

Postby phillipm » Sun Dec 24, 2017 6:10 pm

My V12 has Stromberg carbs and it struggles to rev freely above 3500 revs. I'm thinking of replacing the carbs with throttled bodies controlled by a management system. Does anybody know who manufactures / has experience of such a fuel system? Thanks. Phillip

AJ6 Engineering will via their website sell you one of the most recognised ways to convert our stromberg carbs to injection, having looked at this many years ago it basically involves finding a donor XJS V12 engine and taking the relevant parts and substituting. So you then have to find the parts and then find someone to fit it.

Personally I would investigate what might be the issue preventing free revving first unless you are desperate to go injection.

I would also consider how often you intend to go over 3500 rpm, even in the lower gears my experience is this will take you into illegal territory so it then becomes a personal issue about how you intend to use the car.

Start with the AJ6 documentation and then see where that takes you would be my suggestion.
