| DY {F R Danby} /HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} (struck through) c. Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 10W (handwritten) WRAITH III File (handwritten) DA. {Bernard Day - Chassis Design} 3/G.11.11.38 (handwritten) Gadsby (handwritten signature) B.60 ENGINE IN WRAITH 111 CHASSIS - TOP WATER CONNECTION. Please receive herewith :- E.CD.1018 Top Water Pipe - B.60 engine in Wraith 111 chassis. The moulded rubber connection shown on this drawing is the Wraith 111 bottom water connection EW.1633, and although it requires distorting from its moulded shape to fit this condition, we think it will serve the purpose. It will be necessary to replace the studs in the thermostat casing by set screws to facilitate the assembly of the rubber hose. The drawing also shows the clearance between the fan blades and the radiator top tank, using the fan shown on E.CD.1015. Will you please instruct the necessary parts for the experimental car.
