Dear Sirs, With further reference to your letter of April 16th, we are as requested forwarding you one of our type SM1009 four-cylinder Ignition Distributors but would advise you that we are not at the present time in production on the four-cylinder type with Vacuamatic control. In order, therefore, that you may inspect the timing adjustment which we supply with the Vacuamatic type of distributors, we are forwarding a six-cylinder unit to you. Both these Distributors are going forward under cover of Advice Note No.D.O.27658 and we are arranging, in order that records may be kept in order, that these items be invoiced to you and we shall be pleased to arrange for credit to be passed upon their safe return in good condition. We look forward to having your comments when you have had the opportunity of inspecting these units. Yours faithfully, Asst. to Sales Director.
