c. [struck through text] c. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. WST E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner}1/HP.3.12.35. Phantom 3 Ignition Wiring. We send you herewith:- LeC.4844 showing the vertical trunk tubes, which carry the 12 high tension wires from the distributor, increased in diameter. At the same time we have been able to make the bends at the top and at the bottom easier, with a view to reducing the tool cost. In regard to the gauge of the tubes, we do not mind if they are in 19 or 20 SWG. but naturally we prefer the thinner material if the pipe benders can satisfactorily work to this thickness. LeC.4844 herewith. E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner} | ||
