| BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to BJ. HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X8080 E3/M24. 8. 27 PHANTOM ENGINE - EXPERIMENTAL INDUCTION PIPE. X.8250 X.8080 Y 8070 We send herewith drg. LeC.2448 shewing experimental induction pipe for future application to Phantom engines. This scheme has particular reference to using a carburetter on the steering side of the engine, but in this instance it is desired to try it out experimentally on the blue sports chassis. Would you kindly issue the necessary instructions for producing the pattern, etc., The same pattern could be made to produce both the plain type of junction with the manifold, and the type having a lip around the entrance port. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Prints of LeC2448 Have been issued ACK | ||
