In order to dispose of any argument relative to the performance of B.III, we agree that the performance of 6.B.IV when fitted with overdrive box, 90 m.p.h. @ 4,500 r.p.m. axle ratio, and silent camshaft, will be representa-tive of B.III chassis. We will then estimate the final car weight, and if Sales try it loaded to this weight, they will get the answer to their queries. Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
