Tigers and 'Pines,

Larry Paulick, our prolific author and hands-on restorer of his Tiger,
has contributed another fine article, "A Tiger Air Dam". This neat
device is applicable to both Tigers and Alpines, and is a simple job for
a handy person.

Larry's design mounts in front of the main front suspension cross-member
and prevents hot air, from the high pressure zone in the engine
compartment, from flowing forward and re-entering the radiator. This
aggravates cooling system efficiency, particularly at idle and low
speed. It also acts to increase aerodynamic loads downwards at speed,
increasing front end grip and preventing any "wing" lift.

The Article is released now, contains many detailed photographs, and is
located under the subject heading "Technical Tips" using the hot button
"Performance Tuning".

For direct access to the Performance Tuning menu (his is the last and
latest on the list) use:
