Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}

P.2. CYLINDER HEAD
X.7050

Thank you for your memo Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 3/MJ18.7.31.
I have hunted out the report I had in mind - e.g. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 5/MJ17.7.29 - and I see now the proposal to use a head without lips applied only to lower compression.

E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}
