Just crossed my mind that the guys in the engine shop may not be aware of
any restrictions imposed by the Tiger (or that I am for that matter) in what
they're doing with the 302. Can anyone comment on anything I should clarify
for them? They know we're going with Performer RPM intake and BG Sportsclaw
carb (same physical size as holley double pumper?) I'll also get them the
merged collector headers as soon as I can get the order into CAT.
I'm guessing I need to let them know the specifics on:
* Flywheel size
* Isn't front cover & water pump Tiger specific?
* Any chance that exhaust ports on the various alum heads around are
not all the same as stock? We have Aluminum Dart JR. heads (similar to
Canfield)
I haven't heard of anyone replacing the belt driven fan with an electric
fan. You know of a reason why or of anyone who's taken this route? I do see
a lot of supplemental pusher fans in front of the radiator.
Your input is appreciated.
