Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 13/KW.29.5.35.

Exhaust System.

We have to carry out the experiment shown on LeC.4514. The only way to get reasonably representative results is to make a casting.

As E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} points out, the design he has issued requires a new head. We shall be glad if you could get out an exhaust pipe something similar to the one shown on the existing head, and let us have a look at it. If it can be made up reasonably near the pipe shown on LeC.4514, we will get a casting off for test.
