All;
-Since our TIGER is pretty personalized, if I had an original air
cleaner, fine, if not,fine.The engine in ours sits "slightly"
forward of "normal"...the 715 cfm Le Mans carb required VERY
LITTLE firewall notching or other mods.Valve covers, heads &
headers all can be removed without the engine removal.
-I purchased a speed-shop MOROSO air cleaner & then went to a
general auto parts store and perused the air filters until I
found the one that gave me the proper clearances. If anyone
wants the p/n's, send me a follow-up.

I'm running the original setup except for a Holley carb. Its plenty
adequate but my new car is going to have more power eventually! Original
air cleaners are out there, I was able to find one at a local swap meet
last summer for $100! Real lucky find though...
