| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to BJ. RG.{Mr Rowledge} HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} V4003 E2/M14.12.26. RR.F.10. CAMSHAFT DRIVE. X.4003. We send you herewith drawing LeC.2340., shewing the above revised. For the purpose of facilitating the timing of the engine, the adjustment should now be made as between the upper bevel pinion and the upper coupling, the number of teeth in these two differing by one. During the operation of timing it is necessary to lift the camshaft for changing round the meshing of the bevel gears. Would you kindly let us have two prints addressed to "ElmsteadHenry Royce's home in West Wittering", as we may wish to send one to Le CanadelHenry Royce's French residence.
