To By {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} /NS. {Norman Scott}

Rm {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} /CTS. {C. Trot Salt - Carburation} 10/JH.30.6.39.

Bentley 'Corniche(Bentley streamline(Experimental Streamline Bentley B.23.A.E)d precursor to R Type Continental, never produced)' (S.U. carburetter).

With reference to the model H.6. carburetter which we intend to use on the above.

Will you please produce a specification drawing for the H.6. carburetter (1.750" throttle) on the lines of the drawing you did for the H.4. carburetter on the B.V. unit.

The only difference will be points like the length of throttle spindle, and the fact that we require the dash pot to be a polish finish (not painted).
