INDUCTION SYSTEM. --------------------------------- We would like to know how far you have got in testing out the scheme by which we screwed a steel nipple into the end of the exhaust pipe, and on the nipple screwed a drop forged flange. We feel that the introduction of this scheme would save a tremendous lot of expense, and would like to suggest, if you have tried same and it is working satisfactorily, that it should be brought in as standard at once.
