Many smaller Leyland buses of the sixties used the 400 motor which AFAIK was
a development of the 350 motor, sometimes called the "Comet" motor for its
use in that vehicle, although that would have been in vertical format.
Various models of the Leyland Tiger Cub used the 400. The NSWGR also used it
in the BUDD set to power the auxiliaries on the non-powered car and also to
power the notorious Rail/road bus AXT895.
