Graham, Slightly out of your range but B9473531 has the earlier style with the welded on spacers.

Highlights from this event can be seen on 'Motors TV' on 25th December at 12.10 or 26th December at 12.10 or 29th December at 15.15.

Just looked at the ferries and have booked from Portsmouth to Le Havre, with LD Lines, much cheaper than Brittany Ferries. Looks to be a popular weekend there are very few cabins left!!!!!!!

At the end of leg 2 in Aix-les-Bains John and Mike are 10th in the post 1962 category. Paul Wignall is leading the event and Jayne Wignall is 3rd.

John Abel and all the other Chester starters made it as far as Market Harborough, although they were a bit mud splattered by then! The event finishes in Monte Carlo on Thursday.

Not bad, quite a few errors though, I think they got confused between mark 2 Tigers and the Ken Miles prototype. Also the first half is more about the actual car which has a 289 engine not a 260 so makes strange reading.

Article on the AM Vantage has some good photos!

This week's issue has a 3 page article on the Tiger that was for sale at Eclectic recently. apparently it has now been sold.

Thank you for the replies. I checked with Real Steel and 6 psi is the correct pressure. the Edelbrock instructions are very specific. I know about the hose, but I fitted a new one when I built the car, so only 5 years old. It might be the pump leaking, but guess it really need setting up on a rollin...

I am running an Edelbrock 500 4 barrel carb on my Tiger with a mildly modified 260 cu in engine. I have set the fuel pressure at 6 psi which is what is recomemded in the Edelbrock literature, however cruising about with the hood up, it smells of fuel. I know one solution would be to put the hood dow...

That first black and white shot is superb.

Is that Ozzy lurking in the background?

Already booked in the diary, looking forward to an excellent weekend, hopefully not quite as hot as 2010! 43 degrees C was a bit much!

I think Dale Akuszewski in the US makes aluminium one. http://www.dalesresto.com/parts.html for $175

Thank you , forgot to add it runs a Mallory electronic distributor. I did think about headers but there is not a lot of room! Not sure how it sounds as I have only heard it when I have been driving! A friend say she can hear me from the end of the road so I guess it has a distinctive sound, it is ru...

Briefly my 260 cu. in. has a Ebelbrock 500 4 barrel carb, Comp Cams Xtreme Energy (31-324-3) cam, 1.785" inlet valves & 1.465" exhaust valves, screw in rocker studs. The heads had some work done on the ports together with the manifolds. The pistons are from JE and give a 9.7:1 compression ratio. Sti...

Count me in please. Only running a 260 with a few mods.
