<<thank you for the tank insight.
next on my list is reinstalling a new 302.
first yet me say that my car had frame damage in the front that was
fixed half-ast.
is it better to reinstall the motor with the heads off?(i am putting on
a set of cat headers).
i remember some posting about how you have to set the headers in first
before the motor goes in.

No No NO NO NO.
The easiest way to install headers on a(without engine in the car) Tiger is to
put the car up in the air all the way around(but higher up in front-2 ft if
you can)and remove the front end crossmember(4 bolts and a brake line).Put the
engine on a rolling stand of some sort that also supports the
transmission.Slide unit underneath car and remove the stand and install the
headers and engine mount assembies(loosely).
I just reformatted my harddrive.I will send you the long piece I sent to the
list about my ordeal when I did the same thing,with dos and donts in the next
day or so scott,when i find it.
