When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

I can get you details on the Tiger engine if you want them.  Belongs to a friend of mine that is a Tiger guy, has a 66 that has never been registered, along with lots of goodies.

"Slightly" less luxurious than a modern Peterbilt! Back when men were men!

Hmmm,...don`t see any Greenpeacers or members of the Sierra Club chained to these trees.

I shot mine in Branson MO at a car museum. Where did you find yours? Wish I had the green to buy one! LOL!!!

Joe...that engine...looks a bit worse for the wear! OUCH!

59 Meteor...yea...that was back in the day when people worked for a living instead of criticizing those who did.

Well that's not the first Chevy engine that I've seen that happen to.

Terry can you give us some more info please ? 66 should be a 289 ?
obviously a SBF, but there is a lot going on, on this engine, starting with the manifold and dual water necks, those Webers with the slick fuel feed and all. I have never seen one closeup before. Very cool !
I always liked the Tigers. about 20 yrs ago there was one for sale locally, but I couldn't afford it.
Come to think of it, maybe I should give the owner a call tomorrow. Still can't afford it, but I know where it is... :003:

Some of the '65 GT350's were Weber equipped also...





i think those 289's w/Weber 48IDA's made a little over 300HP
