Re Phantom III Chassis - Valves & Fittings - Sec;5060.

With reference to Rocker Shafts E.86887 in S/ZN. which are in the course of manufacture and are now replaced by E.89152 in S/D.

We have discussed the matter with Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /Swdl. {Len H. Swindell} and it was agreed to utilise them in place of E.89152 until used up, it should of course be noted that the oil holes are in accordance with E.89152, also hardened and ground to the diameter given on E.89152.
