| TO BY FROM E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} X4075 E1/M5.10.22. c. to GJ. ~~WOR. {Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} ~~ c. to HB. {C. E. Harcombe} ~~FPG.~~ c. to RT. X4075 GOSHAWK(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) 11. - WIRING FOR MAGNETO. We send you herewith drawing No. LeC 1634 showing alterations to the wiring conduits to allow for the carrying of the magneto earthing wire. These alterations should be permanently adopted on Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) production, (handwritten 'chassis' is written above 'Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) production') but the magneto wire should not be put in on every chassis. It is required only on those where a magneto is specified by the Sales department. This drawing also shows a modification to the clip which secures the vertical conduits on the front face of the dash. This clip has been redesigned so as to strengthen the section opposite the clamping bolt. This latter modification should be adopted as soon as possible as the clips on the Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) at WW. have collapsed.
