You guys don't get it.  First of all there is no MK1A.  If there were and we
accept the lip flapping from those that just have to have something special
about their Tigers, you'll be happy to know that no 289 claim has every held
up. 

Ford produced all of the last Tiger 260's on Feb. 19, 1965 and the total
MKII engine production was accomplished in two days - June 11th and 22nd, of
1966.

Have a nice day,
