Hey Ron,
Here is a tag I bought on Ebay that claimed to come from a Tiger 260. I did
not believe it but bought the tag due to the 260 scarcity these days.
I was wondering about the 510-J on it that I could not find anywhere in the
Mannel book.
Thanks so much for confirming that I have a real-deal Tiger 260 engine tag
which will go on my 260 engine.
Here is a link to a picture - http://e28-535i.com/upload/260tag.jpg
I found it very interesting that a 260 had a 1966 date code. I did not know
they made the 260 in 1966.
Here is a question, where would one attach this tag on the F4B manifold?

Didn't you just get Bob Mannel's Book on SBF engines?
Appendix A - Engine Tags page A-6; the Ford application # on the aluminum
engine tag for the Tiger 260 engine is 510.
This # is not listed and Bob never ran across any information about that #;
I don't know what that # is for the Tiger 289.
I find these things interesting. Sorry if you do not. The delete key is
always available.
