They were 3.4's until 1960 or 1961 and then they went to 3.8. The xk150s
tricarb engine was just about the same as the engine spec that first went
into the the xke.

I wonder if anyone recalls the scene with Clint Eastwood in the movie *Play
Misty For Me* driving his XK 150 Jag through the mountains above the ocean
in the Carmel area? Just as cool as it gets! The exhaust note coming off
that double over head cam straight 6 as the Jag climbs up through the
hills.
. nothing else quite like it. Also shot at dusk.
What was the displacement of the straight 6 on Jags of that era? A 3.8 I
think? Then it went to a 4.2?
