VULTURE(Experimental 6 CYL OHV LONG STROKE / Aero Engine) ENGINE.

We are sending you herewith two blue prints of DES.2286 showing the arrangement of the oil, petrol and water pump drives for the above.

This scheme cancels our earlier schemes to DES 2206 and DES 2248, owing to the different dispositions of the various drives.

Will you please detail and instruct for the necessary parts to be put in hand.

The remainder of the particulars for the blower casing will follow at a later date.

Enc.DES.2286.
