RE ALUMINIUM PISTON FOR CARS.

Referring to Mr. Royce's latest sheet asking us to produce an aluminium piston for the car, I am sending you herewith a rough sketch giving the proposed clearances.

I would like to have your views on the matter, as to whether the suggested figures are sufficient. Obviously, we must keep the clearances as small as possible.
