408 To HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/CTS.{C. Trot Salt - Carburation} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/CTS.{C. Trot Salt - Carburation}2/MH.{M. Huckerby}21.11.38. B.V. INDUCTION SYSTEM. Further to our memo Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/CTS.{C. Trot Salt - Carburation}3/MH.{M. Huckerby}1.11.38, we have been given one more week in which to decide whether or not we are having automatic carburation on Bentley V.{VIENNA} It is essential that we get the latest parts rigged up on the rig engine for the ice-house immediately. Will you therefore fit the system intended for B.V. No.6 unit, to the rig engine, and transfer the existing system from B.V. No.5 to No.6. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/CTS.{C.
