Be carefull what you ask!
There are 2 different 2.5's.
The export XJ came with a 2.5 diesel.
Completely different to the 2.5 in the early KJ.
You maybe better asking over on lostjeep.
I believe For the 2.5 and 2.8 used in the KJ, the difference is the bore. I have heard that there are also some minor differences in the head.
Cranks and RMS are the same in the 2.5 & 2.8 in the KJ.
