Please Note
Please compare EAC3983PA, cover design, mounting points and photographs with your existing part before purchasing. Later AJ16-equipped XJS/X300 models use a different valve-cover arrangement, so engine type and original part number should be checked rather than relying on 4.0L capacity alone.
