  6. Hi Bob, my sarry is 24V, hence the pumps are connected in series as well as wired in series. I have a pressure regulator but it must still be installed together with a fuel pressure indicator.
  7. Welcome and remember, pics are most welcome too!!
  8. Hi Bob, my Saracen does have dipsticks as was installed by the factory, ie. not homemade. I still have a bevelbox on which I need to change the leaking oil seal, I will take some pics and dimensions for you guys. Here is a pic from my sarry build-up thread.
  9. Pity the sarry does not have a number....
  10. Hi, the South African army had quite a few of them. Here is a pic of one... At first they were equiped with 60mm and then modified for the 90mm. The South African soldiers called them "noddy cars". Search for SADF eland and you will find a lot of info. Here is a Youtbe clip. and another (Lots of pics around 2 min in the clip)

  17. Please read all the way though and learn about a true American Hero! You're a 19 year old kid. You're critically wounded and dying in The jungle somewhere in the Central Highlands of Viet Nam .. It's November 11, 1967. LZ (landing zone) X-ray. Your unit is outnumbered 8-1 and the enemy fire is so intense from 100 yards away, that your CO (commanding officer) has ordered the MedEvac helicopters to stop coming in. You're lying there, listening to the enemy machine guns and you know you're not getting out. Your family is half way around the world, 12,000 miles away, and you'll never see them again. As the world starts to fade in and out, you know this is the day. Then - over the machine gun noise - you faintly hear that sound of a helicopter. You look up to see a Huey coming in. But.. It doesn't seem real because no MedEvac markings are on it. Captain Ed Freeman is coming in for you. He's not MedEvac so it's not his job, but he heard the radio call and decided he's flying his Huey down into the machine gun fire anyway. Even after the MedEvacs were ordered not to come.He's coming anyway. And he drops it in and sits there in the machine gun fire, as they load 3 of you at a time on board. Then he flies you up and out through the gunfire to the doctors and nurses and safety. And, he kept coming back!! 13 more times!! Until all the wounded were out No one knew until the mission was over that the Captain had been hit 4 times in the legs and left arm. He took 29 of you and your buddies out that day. Some would not have made it without the Captain and his Huey. Medal of Honor Recipient, Captain Ed Freeman, United States Air Force, died last Wednesday at the age of 70, in Boise, Idaho May God Bless and Rest His Soul. I bet you didn't hear about this hero's passing, but we've sure seen a whole bunch about Lindsay Lohan, Tiger Woods and the bickering of congress over Health Reform. Medal of Honor Winner Captain Ed Freeman Shame on the media !!! Honor this real hero. "Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints on your heart.." -Eleanor Roosevelt Love, The Muffster
