I am familiar with that little aluminum Buick V8 but, never thought of it as an engine for the Tiger, conceptually. The 215 Buick-Rover engine was a little screamer. Thanks for the read!

Interesting article, never heard of it before...
Could the rumor have been because Rootes really was looking for a V8 (or 
more power) as early as 1962?
MG later revised the engine compartment in all MGBs to allow the (now 
Rover) MGB-V8... good engine.

Interesting find. It has all the =E2=80=9CI heard it on the Internet=E2=80=
