This is to confirm having handed to you, two Goshawk(Aero Engine)(Codename for 20HP Car / Aero Engine after Kestrel(Aero Engine)) Distributor Rockers fitted with Grey fibre blocks made from the piece of fibre which you supplied.

We have also carried out some machining tests, and this fibre machines much better than the previous material supplied.
