| x147 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 3/KT. March 31st 1933. The S.U. Company, East Works, Bordesley Green Road, Adderley Park, B'ham. For the attention of Mr. Skinner. Dear Mr. Skinner, Thank you for the pair of HBHC. carburetters numbers E.107914/5 received today. We are proposing to send a R.R. car with the increased power output engine to you on Tuesday of next week, if this is convenient. We are sending you herewith a drawing showing the arrangement of the carburetters, which has been produced by our designers, and we naturally want to reproduce this together with the mixture control on this car. To keep us going this end, we should like ½ doz. No.6 needles for the 1¾" throttle diameter carburetters. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
