[Tigers] It's all Steve Laifman's fault

Gary is technically correct.  The rover v8 started out as the olds 215
rocket v8 in the early 60's and was licensed to rover which then was known
as the rover v8 and was put in the TR8.  So the basis is actually american
with english modifications over the years/
