The first thing you should do is check all the connections from the
battery to the relay to the starter. I was having some starter issues this
spring and found a couple of loose connections at the relay. The starter
worked fine after fixing the connections.
I believe it depends on the headers you have but yes you may have to
loosen or remove that header. I have not done this so hopefully others will
respond.
I do recommend you have your starter rebuilt. I know several people
who bought and exchanged their original Tiger starter only to find the new
one did not fit right. I'm not sure why they had the problem.
The original Tiger starter Ford part # is C2OZ-11002-A
If you do take the starter out; the engine casting # and casting date code
is in that area. I would be interested for my Original Tiger Engine Study.

Subject: [Tigers] starter replacement
i suspect my starter is failing. Is it difficult to replace starter on a 260
tiger with headers.Should i be expecting to drop the headers to do this.
