PEREGRINE(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) DISTRIBUTOR TESTS

In order to put up the speed of our ignition
test rig for testing Peregrine(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) distributors, we should be
glad if you will have the gears altered as shown on
drawing Ex.2253 to give a 2 : 1 ratio.
