[Tigers] V6 Alpine?

[Wally Menke]

I wouldn't bother with the V6. Just use a Nissan SR20 2.0 litre twin cam
motor and you have a lot simpler job. We have one over here in Sydney which
has been beautifully engineered even with the non-turbo version it's getting
over 200 hp at the rear wheels. Now with a turbo and a bit of work you'd
have an 11 sec 1/4 mile car.

Why are we comparing "modified" (V6) Alpines with "stock" Tigers?
I doubt a modern 5.0L with aluminim heads and intake weighs more than 50 lbs
over the V6.  Plus, how many speed parts have you seen in your Jegs catalog
for a Ford V6?
