I don=E2=80=99t believe any Mk 1A originally came with a =
289 engine. I see no evidence of anything but the B19KC 260 engine =
group for the last production Mk 1A. Norm Miller calls the 289 engine =

either position.

My Original Tiger Engine Study does not contain specific information for =

that.
