re Continental Phantom II
Please receive herewith:
LeC.3298 - Hot Spot Feed Pipe.
The Experimental department have brought to our notice that the thin steel hot/spot pipe running from the cylinder to the inlet pipe jacket makes a tinny noise.
To overcome this complaint we suggest making this pipe a casting in malleable iron, as shown on the drawing.
