According to Wikipedia Ford owned New Holland from 1986 to 1991; so this =
is
a bit removed from the Tiger build time.
=20
The Ford Industrial Division as it relates to the Tiger; as far as I =
know it
was just a few people pushing paper in the correct direction not a full
blown budgeted Ford organization.
=20
I wonder if these very low compression engines were part of the =
Stationary
engines that Ford produced?

Interesting about these overseas engines. Ford, I believe, also owned =
New
Holland farm tractors. Since the Tiger was once supposedly from the
industrial division I wondered if the New Holland farm equipment was =
from
the same division and if some Tiger specific parts would cross with New
Holland parts. I called an old time dealer and hoped that I might find =
a
very old parts dept. employee. No luck and the guy that I spoke to said =
the
numbers I gave him made no sense at all. So, that was a dead end.
But in the back of my head I still thought that somewhere out there is a
warehouse with Tiger pulleys that no one ever asks for and no one knows =
what
they else they might fit. LOL

They have a unique Vin code letter.
