| X. 4003 To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to BJ. RG.{Mr Rowledge} Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} E1/M22.7.26. FALCON 10. CAM FORMS Further to our memo. E1/M21.7.26., would you kindly note Mr. Royce remarks as follows :- "Temporarily the present master cams with a larger roller and the 106° already instructed between the cams should give approx. the same effect, and might be tested while the new master cams are being made. This will not however give the increased height of lift, and neither will it give quite the acceleration, but we think it would be worth while to make a camshaft to save time, and to ensure that we are working in the right direction. We are certain it will give approx. the effect, but not the whole effect". E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
