Dear Terry,
Q. "Can I get one without the maple leaf on it?"
A. Sure can, but carries no warranty like the ones with the Maple Leaf, it is part of my branding of the product.
The Maple Leaf is carried with pride but it also carries certain other elements that ensure we can identify the item as being from my production and not a nasty inferior knock off, which will happen over time I am certain because that is human nature. No Maple Leaf means that likely it isn't the same material used, which will likely be the cause of a failure.
Q. "Seriously though, do they suit the Saracen as well? I assume that they would."
A. I believe it will, I have not seen the FV number for the Saracen, or Saladin or Stalwart or CVR(T) as yet but it looks very likely that unless there is a minor variant on the base design then yes it will. We know that the CVR(T) petrol powered version uses a similar unit for the engone oil and also the Belgian versions have a similar gearbox oil filter mount but I am scrambling to get eyes on the FV numbers and the units themselves to ensure that my fairly certain supposition is proven to be a dead cert before I advertise it as such.
However, it seems others, wiser than me, already believe this to be true judging by the emails landing in my inbox asking to order them.
I have orders from around the globe so far.
Regards
Robin Craig
