RM{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} re WXA-1 We should prefer this job to be done at the works. The following is a summary of what it necessitates:- changing the new camwheel 1 modify front end of camshaft plunger. 2 modify Cam bearing housing. 3 Wheel case modified to suit thrust button 4. The job is not guaranteed unless the other gears are checked for angle & bedding to suit back-lash. The parts will be ready Today. We should allow 3 days for the work to be on the safe side.
