<p class="MsoNormal">All of the LAT factory options were allowed in SCCA in 1965 and were perfectly legal then. After the Tiger did so well (and would have won the championship if not for Chevy), the big manufacturers protested and then they were not allowed
in 1966. Additionally, the LAT factory options were allowed in the stock classes in the AHRA at least through 1967, but not in the NHRA.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica Neue"">If you don't allow (taking off points) LAT headers in concours, then all LAT options shouldn't be allowed, aluminum valve covers, oil pans, wheels, hood, etc. No Tiger came from
England with any LAT options, they would all be dealer installed, which wouldn't be seen very often. Maybe "High Performance Motors?" etc. might have installed headers etc. before selling a car. Rootes had problems getting the LAT options for SCCA homologation.
Anyone have a dealer invoice showing LAT options on it when sold?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

and keeps heat in the exhaust ports.. It isnt stock... If you coat to appear original finish its up to the judges to spot... If you have these coated and another car has them painted ..
