Replying to Cx. {Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager} 5/KW.12.9.35. (1) The R.A.C. Rating is 50.7 h.p. (2) The capacity is 7,340 cc. (3) A marine type connecting rod is one in which the top half of the bearing is cast into a shell which is separate from the stem of the rod. Since it is doubtful whether we shall standardise this type of rod for Ph.111, however, we suggest you delete the term from the catalogue if possible. (4) The clock is wound electrically.
