Jaguar Electronic Fuel Injection Conversion

Many classic Jaguar owners love the character of SU carburetors, but few enjoy dealing with cold-start issues, fuel delivery inconsistencies, vapor lock, or constant tuning adjustments. A professionally installed Jaguar EFI Conversion provides modern reliability and drivability while preserving the character of the car you love.

At It's Alive Automotive, we install and tune Jenvey throttle body systems paired with Emerald engine management for Jaguar E-Types, XK120s, XK140s, XK150s, and other classic Jaguar models. The result is a more enjoyable driving experience, improved throttle response, and consistent performance in a wide range of conditions.

Why Consider Electronic Fuel Injection?

Electronic fuel injection eliminates many of the frustrations commonly associated with vintage carbureted systems. Modern EFI continuously monitors engine operating conditions and adjusts fuel delivery accordingly, helping your Jaguar start easier, idle smoother, and respond more consistently.

For owners seeking a Jaguar performance upgrade that can be enjoyed every time they drive, EFI offers a compelling combination of reliability, drivability, and modern engine management. Owners often pursue EFI conversions to reduce maintenance and gain greater confidence during long drives and changing weather conditions.

The conversion remains fully reversible and allows many owners to enjoy modern drivability without compromising the visual character of their Jaguar.

Jenvey Heritage and Individual Throttle Body EFI Systems for Classic Jaguars

Choose the System That Fits Your Jaguar

Two EFI Systems. One Goal.

Every Jaguar owner has a different vision for their car. Some prefer the unmistakable look and performance of individual throttle bodies, while others want a more period-correct engine bay. As an authorized Jenvey dealer, It's Alive Automotive offers both the Jenvey Individual Throttle Body (ITB) and Jenvey Heritage systems. Each delivers the reliability, drivability, and precision of modern electronic fuel injection while allowing you to choose the appearance and character that best complements your Jaguar.

Jenvey Individual Throttle Bodies (ITBs)

For enthusiasts seeking the ultimate Jaguar EFI performance upgrade, the ITB system delivers exceptional throttle response, precise engine control, and an unmistakable motorsport-inspired appearance. The lightweight, compact throttle bodies are also well suited for tighter engine compartments, including the Jaguar XK120, XK140, and XK150, making installation cleaner and more efficient.

Jenvey Heritage

The Jenvey Heritage system is designed to capture the appearance of period performance carburetors while incorporating modern electronic fuel injection. It's an excellent choice for owners who want improved reliability and drivability while maintaining a classic, period-correct engine bay aesthetic.

Both systems are paired with the Emerald Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and are professionally installed, calibrated, and dyno tuned on our in-house Mustang chassis dynamometer to deliver reliable performance and an exceptional driving experience.
