CHASSIS - PISTONS.
------------------
Referring to Mr Royce's memo E6/G1519 with reference to the length of the split end of the piston ring stop where it protrudes on the inside of the cylinder, would you kindly let me have a sample cylinder with the pins fitted of which Mr Royce complains, so that I can see how much it is possible to remove from same.
