In this case, no, Ian did not swap the 260 for a 289.  Later a rebuild was done at Performance Associates.

The Stan Peterson Tiger did run a 289.  It also ran in C/MSP which included cars like a T-Bird with a 427 in it.

Hi Kirk:

Thanks for the rest of the story!

The jump in horsepower output reminded me of a story about a racing Tiger that went like crazy out on the track and when somebody (Doane Spencer?) was asked how they got such great performance out of the little 260 replied "could you tell the difference between a 260 and 289 just by looking at it?"

You don't suppose Mr. Garrad......no, of course not. :-)

Thanks again!

Best Regards

David Sosna

P.S. for those of you who know the story, my apologies for garbling it. ;-)
