| 1263 To By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems}8/JH.4.2.39. Petrol Pumps. The S.U. Co. still have 120 H.P. petrol pumps to complete for the Phantom III order. We have arranged that the Wraith and Phantom III petrol pumps shall be interchangeable and as the Tufnol bush will be fitted to Wraith C series, we should like these pumps to be fitted with the Tufnol bush also, especially as in all probability this modification will be introduced on all the H.P. pumps. We attach a standardisation sheet for this modification and would like to have authorisation to ask the S.U. Co. to proceed without delay. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B.
