The 1964 DOHC version is quite impressive:  over 425 HP from only 255 cu.
in. and weighing just over 400 lbs!  Looking at the photos, I have one
question about the 1964 engine:  Where's the distributor?

The 1968 turbo version is equally impressive: 750 HP from only 168 cu. in.
I wonder how much boost they ran?

Looks like both of them are too wide to fit in a Tiger, not to mention the
center exhaust issue!

Keep on Tigering!
