Tiger getting air

[Fasttiger]

This vedio was taken at a track in El Paso, Tx.
on a 200 shot of NOS, I love it when Tiger people say they can’t get traction!!!

My fastest 1/4 time 9:20’s @ 148 when I had twin turbos.

Now that I’m in my 70’s it time to just put a stock 302 and a nice 650 dbl pump Holley carb a HEI dist.
No more racing (maybe) but it still has this just in case ☺️☺️☺️

 

[Austin Healer]

where did you fit the turbos??

 

[Fasttiger]

Austin we mounted them in the rear just ahead of the rear end and had the intercooler in the trunk.
They were billet 57’s.
I was sponsored by Turbo Horsepower in Albuquerque and was tuned by the Dyno edge!

If I remember right we put down like 600+ to the rear wheels, motor was a 363 World Products with good AFR heads.

148 mph in a Tiger is fast...but doable...
Doing it from standstill in 1320ft is the kicker

I know it's doable, just frightening! I've been as fast at 132 verified on my GPS unit, but I wouldn't want to go much faster....

There are numerous vedios at different tracks verifying what the car has done.
My goals were a 150 mph @8:99 ET came close 😢
Now I’m going to a stock 302 and putting my 3:23 gear in and just do the car shows and cruises 😀
The car has been over 150 just not in the 1/4!

I think Hugh Guynes from Cincinnati has topped 160 in his Tiger but that's on a measured mile run and I seem to remember that speed was around the 1/2 mile mark. I've wonder what speed Patton's race Tiger tops out at on the long straight at VIR when running the full course.
