I might be one of the lucky ones on my 4.2 E-type.  It is smooth as silk and will idle beautifully at 700 RPM's---even after just starting it cold.   Once you get them set up-------leave them alone---unless, of course, there is a need to readjust.

balancing and tuning the triple 2" SU set up on the Jags is very
finicky because there's almost too much throat for for the 3.8/4.2.
This means the Jag SU's have to be in perfect nick otherwise you'll
never get it to idle properly. Once done though, it's a real gem.
