HOT SPOTS - P.II CONTINENTAL.

We are now fitting the two carburetters which were designed for J.III on the Continental P.II (Carbs. to L&C.2924).

In order to get hot spots to these two carburetters we want two additional passages through the head as on J.III.

These can be incorporated in the pattern of the 5.25 C/R head which is in any case a special head. Will you please issue instructions to the pattern shop.

We shall utilise the universal induction pipes which you have already given us for these carburetters.
