Thats 100% factory. I got canaried today and the police officer stated in conjunction with the PCV, I should a breather hose running from the aircleaner? Pollution gear he says. I can't recall ever seeing one with it that was factory. Just want to get my facts straight before presenting @ Vic roads to have the yellow sticker removed on Wednesday.

Only other thing picked was my drag slicks but hey of course I know they aint legal

Hi Brenden, pre adr27 xb's didn't have this. from memory adr27 didn't kick in til june '74. check your id tags.

....apart from the slicks, thats getting a bit picky though. A pain to get it re-approved

I thought that was June 75? Mines June 74. The books I have hear don't show enough detail to see it. Mines got ADR 27 but not ADR 27a.

It's no biggie to put it in. I already have but it requires a massive air cleaner that will be thrown in the back seat as soon as I leave vic roads. With the big aircleaner on the car struggles to start and/or run. A pain in the arse really for something that does pretty much nothing.

That a bit of bad luke did they get you on the way home, like they always do. And most people say its the XCs that have all of the ADRs.

Nah I'd just turned onto the freeway on my way to work to do a few things.

ADR 27 came out sometime in 1974, so all XCs will have it, some XBs will. The 12/75 XB I looked at had it.

Why can't I find any info on ADR 27 on the net? Because it's been superceeded? Time to dig out my emissions module stuff from trade school.
