To R.{Sir Henry Royce} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to CJ. RG.{Mr Rowledge} c. to E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} c. to EY. FN. c. to WORY WEIGHTS OF EAC. AND 40/50 ENGINE. Attached herewith are weights of 40/50 and EAC. engine parts compared. The parts have been weighed in sections and it includes all parts given in the L.O.P. sheets. It will be seen that the EAC. is definitely more heavy in flywheel and clutch and crankcase and bearings. The flywheel diameters are - 40/50 17.125" - EAC. 15.9". Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
