I examined a Tiger with the F-28 dual for barrel setup some years
ago when the TE/AE convention was here in Huntsville. To fit the rear carb,
the firewall needed to be clearanced by removing 6-8 inches of the
horizontal, triangular shaped 'rib' that runs a few inches below the hood
latch assembly. This rib (shaped in cross section like <, and pointing
toward the front of the car) only interferes with the rear carb. by an inch
or so. The car I observed had a neatly added filler strip that made the
entire modification look factory. It wasn't a mod I would make to a
pristine example, but I wouldn't feel bad doing it on a 'driver'.
