Wraith II - Clutch.

To obtain clearance for assembling the gearbox in the chassis when the engine is in place it is necessary to move the joint between the crankcase and the clutch casing 1" backwards as we remark in E {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} /HDY. {William Hardy} 4/HP.8.6.36.

We now send N.Sch.4876 showing the modifications required to the clutch casing.
