[Tigers] Original Tiger engine Study

[Ron Fraser]

Thank you Tom

                I too encourage all to participate.  The E7KL and G13KA engine groups are the 2nd and 3rd engine groups – maybe 350 engines total.  Some of these engines were installed in Historic Tigers and some of those owners are looking for their original engine or a close representative of the original engine.  I can’t help them without your help.

 

                I’m also interested in the early B19KC engines.  The 1st B19KC engine is #5565 but I don’t know the last # for this early group.  I studied The Book of Norm again and I see a good number of Tigers with the B19KC engine that have a Jensen Date in Sept 1965 so there has to be this early group of B19KC engines.  The fall build of B19KC engine was Oct 65.  I still suspect this early group of B19KC engines goes to around #6000 – I sure would like to understand that early group of B19KC engines with more clarity.

I’d like to encourage everyone to participate in Ron’s endeavor to acquire this information. 

 

I’m not sure if this is applicable to any of the locations he seeks numbers from (maybe the block number behind the starter???)..., but I have slide a wooden shim coated with clay or plumbers putty into the difficult to access areas to retrieve a pressing of the part numbers. Holding the imprint up to a mirror assists in reading the numbers.

To All

                Here is a copy of my work sheet.   I’m always looking for more information for all the Tiger engine groups.

 

Currently I’m looking at the E7KL and G13KA engine groups.

 

I don’t have a single complete record for either of these groups and I would like to change that.

What I really need is engine assembly dates for these engines so I can help a fellow Tiger owner understand if he has the correct original block.   I don’t know if I can exactly determine if it is the correct block but I’m going to try.

 

All information about Tiger engines is welcome and I will gladly help you decipher any Ford numbers. 

 

Thank you

 

Ron Fraser
