INDUCTION PIPES.

We are carrying out experiments on induction systems which will have a large bearing on the design of our future development engines.

There are three schemes available, which were completed just before the War started, which should be detailed:-

ECD.1462 - B.80
ECD.1524 - B.80
ECD.1509 - B.60

These schemes represent what we consider to be the answer to many of the faults existing on our present develop-ment cars using the Duplex Stromberg carburetter.
