Re: sunbeam tiger
If a 427 side-oiler fits, I'm guessing that LS6 would too. That could be fun. What do those things weigh?Comment

Re: sunbeam tiger
Not much. Right around 2500 pounds if memory serves. My father-in-law had a few in the late 60's early 70's. I remember him saying barely over a ton. But I couldn't be positive.Comment

Re: sunbeam tiger
Too bad I am so computer illiterate that I can't figger out how to put photos up on this site..... If I could I would share a few or Lawrence Mayfeild's Bonneville Sunbeam. "Mayf" as we call him is a (very) for real rocket scientist (retired ) and has set as a goal to break Sir Henry Seagrave's 200+ MPH record set a long time ago in a Sunbeam. He calls his car "The world's fastest wannabe Sunbeam" and dreams of the day he can drop the word "wannabe"Comment

Re: sunbeam tiger
I'll help you out Ed.
I got a couple pictures off of http://www.mayfco.com
These are from August 2003 according to the site. I'm sure you have newer ones, but the idea should come across.
