Not sure but I think there were a limited number that came with a Ford V8
260ci engine then a short time later they started installing the 289ci.
Of course, either way they only ran good in a straight line. If you wanted
one you could actually turn at speed you needed to get the Alpine rather
than the Tiger.

Better yet, buy an old Mustang, pull the engine and pop it in the Tiger...
it was the Ford
289 that was installed in the Tiger.
