| BY Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 8/4616 EP{G. Eric Platford - Chief Quality Engineer}/Thn11/H5.1.26. re. American Proposal Sheet No. 62. Connecting Rod Big End Bush. With reference to the above, Mr. Royce has now signed this without comment. We are asked by BJ. to state whether in our opinion a 10,000 miles test is required before incorporating in production. We assume from the 3rd. paragraph of your BY8/H22.7.25. that you do not consider a 10,000 miles test is necessary, and shall advise BJ. accordingly unless we hear from you at once to the contrary.
