T - Have you heard of the "LEON Fuel Saver" at all?

I have been sent several emails covering correspondence regards the testing of vehicles fitted with this system, to me it all sounds much alike 'Piss Hot Air Smoke & Mirrors'... or in short, a resurrected 'Brock Polarizer' in the essence of it’s workings...

There is mention of;
Authorised Representative Royal Australian Engineers (RTD)
Airline Transport Pilot

I take it this is some form of self accreditation on their part, but knowing that you have a vested interest in this area I would like to forward the information on to your good self to gain your input...

If you could drop me an email at the below link so I can forward these to you (around 800kb's worth) I would be very interested to hear what you have to say off the record...

Hey guys I have just had a quick search and cant come up with any results. I am chasing after some sort of diagram that shows the dimensions of the LC, LJ torana, I remember seeing one posted up of a tonner a while back, Kind of like a blue print, different angles and all. if anyone can find something, or somewhere I can view these please let me know :) cheers

I have come across this term alot lately, and have always wondered, what has to be done to an old holden 202, or 308 to make it "marine" (and I dont mean the colour lol)

While recently visiting the in-laws place after a drought I came across what appears to be either a 1936 or 1937 Chevrolet Utility with a factory GM body [well-side not pick up style]. I had been aware that there was a vehicle on the property but have only recently revisted the area and discovered that the cattle had eatten all the vegetation around the ute so I could inspect it closer.
It seems to be complete other than rims etc... but in ordinary condition.

Wrecking my brothers HG Kingswood, I did put some pics in my shed just over 12 months ago when he wanted to sell it but then he paid the rego and kept driving it (somehow) For another 12 bloody months!!! Anyway, He's stuffed the motor now (Cooked it) and is being wrecked out, There are still pics in my shed but take no notice of the dates or price( unless ya wanna buy the whole thing) Lost the link to my shed somehow and don't know how to put it back so my shed is on page 7, this has to go A.S.A.P as I am moving house soon and want it gone from my yard.

Expression of interest,

i am considering selling my spare Strata exhaust manifold, 175 SU Carby - with filter (and injecting nozzle), to4b turbo adapter to suit a red motor (186/202 etc..)

if anybody is interested email me with an offer at nmann@skm.com.au

parts are located in WA, but will post (no time wasters)

Cheers
