That is correct PG. Three TL50s with a 250KW stroker. That is sort of the whole point of this thread. 2 of the T3 TL50s are actually plated as AUIIs, Shayne's or FTe342's T3 TL is actually plated as an AUIII, which in my opinion, makes it the only AUIII LWB is existance.

russellw was attempting to find out if this is correct, but we have not heard much more on this. My thoughts, given AU LWBS ceased production in Nov 02 and that we have at least two AU LWB approaching that date, both clearly marked as AUII is that there is no general production AUIII LWBs. My LTD is plated AUII in June 02 and Mr Hardware showed us a Fairlane plate from carsales showing August 02.

Keen to hear if Russ found out any more on this.

Cheers
