Holiu Pm/STD (handwritten) 1328- (handwritten) STEADMAN (handwritten vertically on left margin) BENTLEY 111 - THERMOSTAT AND WATER BYE-PASS CONNECTIONS. Please receive herewith E.CD.210 Arrangement of Thermostat and Piping. Bentley 111. It will be noticed that in order to make room for the thermostat, we are unable to use in the Wraith 111 fan design, and the revised fan support for Bentley 111 will be issued shortly. E.CD.210 also shows the bottom water pipe between engine and radiator, the rear half of this pipe being same as for Wraith 111. We have shown modifications to the front wiring tube clips, and also to the two small clips for the H.T. bobbins; these modified clips should also be used for Wraith 111 when it is convenient to introduce them, so that they may become common parts for both engines. The top water connection between engine and radiator will be shown on a further design. Will you please detail and instruct the parts required experimentally. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
