Co. with sufficient metal left on to produce what is required. In making detail drawings of carburetter parts it is essential that as many standard S.U. parts are used as possible, to avoid developing a new carburetter. These drawings should not be started in fact until we see what sort of casting can be obtained. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/CTS.{C. Trot Salt - Carburation} | ||
