[Tigers] 260 intake casting numbers

[CoolVT at aol.com]

Will, you mention the exhaust  manifolds.  As we know, one side...I think 
it's the driver's side is  supposed to be a manifold that is only used by the 
Tiger. If Ford supplied the  manifolds, which I think they did, it would be 
interesting to see where else  this manifold might have been used. It's hard to 
believe that Ford would go to  all the trouble of making a separate manifold just 
to be used on the Tiger. I  can't remember what the original order for 
engines was from Ford, but I think it  was only in the 100's.  So, Ford had no 
guarantees that any more would be  ordered.  Doesn't make sense that Ford would 
develop a new casting for an  order of just a few hundred.
So, is this "special" manifold used elsewhere?  Inquiring  minds want to 
know:-)
