The XJS used TH400s behind a 5.3L V12 but the bellhousing was Jaguar specific.
They ride well because the rubber isolator bushings between the suspension & unibody (in the pics they welded it in).
Ever change rotors on the rear of a Jaguar? Complete PITA!
Rear steering sucks (behind the crossmember). The way the rack is designed you will have trouble linking it with the steering column even with aftermarket heim joints & steering u-joints fom borgeson or flaming river.
The rack bushings are notorious for going bad very quickly.
