Tom
According to the Parts List all Tiger engines have this bracket.
I'll have to look on my Tiger but not tonight.

Paul, if convenient I'd like to see a picture of the front fuel line
bracket. it's possible the part was eliminated with the transition to the
Alternator on the Mark 2, or it may have been lost somewhere before I bought
the car in '76. Strange things happened to the dipstick bracket somewhere
along the way. Maybe there's a connection.
Thanks,
Tom
'67 Mark 2
