| - 2 - E.1/HP.26.1.35. any of our competitors are using plugs direct in the aluminium. The only objection we know of is that a sparking plug having a damaged thread might be used in the cylinder with disastrous results to the cylinder thread. We are also looking into the question of scheming an inter-cooler into the induction system, with a view to reducing the charge temperature. E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
