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

Ford made some very low compression engines. They were sold to third world

They have a unique Vin code letter.
