| To EY. from DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to CJ. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} C. 48260 S E C R E T. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} A.{Mr Adams} C. 11. RADIATOR, BONNET AND DASH. X. 8250/60 X. 8500. It has been generally agreed that an increase in the height of the matrix of the EAC.2 radiator is desirable, and we are going to drop down .400" lower into the frame, and go up .600" so as to give us a total height of 23" for the matrix. We should like the mock-up which has been made to be altered to these dimensions. We believe this has already left Derby, and if so these modifications should be carried out at the Coachbuilders. We send herewith N.sch.1841 shewing the new dimensions. Detailed information as to the radiator mounting, modified cross member, etc. will follow in the course of a few days.
