Check this out for a winning post - diesel grey motor with blower, I am guessing it also has a repco head and a canadian block ;D No picture so the elusive canadian may have evaded us all again ::)

Another special listing from a Ebay newby ;)

Hey Burnsy.
I think the descrition is accurate, it's the interpretation that might be a bit off. ;D
Here's a GM Diesel 6-71 series.

Fitting this "grey motor" into the EK might be a problem. :D

Here's the beast in question. Description is pretty close, grey coloured, blown diesel.. As Burnsy said, could be a Canadian Grey :P

You know when I sat there typing that first post I thought sure as eggs there is a grey GM deisel and I am going to end up eating my own shit here and sure enough so it is ;D

Definitely looks like the stronger reinforced Canadian Block though!
