We should also be glad to know how many castings you will be prepared to take off these patterns for 6-cylinder and 8-cylinder cast iron engines, and what additional equipment, if any, will be needed to make a run of 1,000 6-cylinder engines and 500 8-cylinder engines. In addition to the above, we understand that you have patterns for High Power Heads in aluminium for both the 6 and the 8. Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
