TWO FIXED CHOKE CARBURETTERS TO LeC.2924

We have now got these carburettors to a
condition where they are ready for the road. We propose
to fit them to 16-G-IV as soon as it is available.

We attach a power curve showing the best
results we have obtained with them on a Japan(Experimental Engine) 1 unit.
