Tony,
>From your description it's acting like the thermostat never closes or may
have been gutted. Rick at SS shows a 160 degree thermostat for summer. 180
for winter for the Alpine, I would think that would apply to the Tiger as
well. Stock Ford, of course.
I'm using a 160 degree thermostat in my ' 67.
