In Mike Taylor’s book "TIGER THE MAKING OF A SPORTS CAR" , he references the meeting with John Bachman of FORD Commercial Sales Division and John Panks of Rootes about the necessary modifications to the Ford engine. The alterations to the delivered engines carry Ford Industrial Engine part numbers. Most part numbers are now obsolete. Now if you need a part from Ford, tell the parts counter man the part is for my boat, otherwise he’ll show you the exit door!
