| To D.A. from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Copy to C.L. EFC. ORIGINAL RECEIVED RE 20 H.P. ENGINE BEARER ARMS. X.3534/19 E4/G17/4/19. 2 We send you herewith drawing No.Lec.1076 shewing the above. The crankcase is carried on two spherical faces under the rear feet and on two cylindrical faces under the front feet. The front feet are supposed to slide the requisite amount to meet the difference in expansion between the crank-case and bearer tubes lengthways, they are therefore provided with brass liners. Would you kindly put in hand the necessary drawings to this scheme. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
