| 10HH SECRET. To Ev. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} from Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 12/MH. {M. Huckerby} 27.1.40. Regarding your Ev. {Ivan Evernden - coachwork} 5/25.1.40 we cannot see why we cannot fit rev counters to all existing engines by building up a boss on the crankcase. What we therefore want are detail drawings of 6 and 8-cylinder camshafts having rev counter drives on them. Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
