| 96th Meeting 8th Dec.11. Re Improving the power of chassis 1796 (Pope) Mr Nadin brought before the Committee a note S5/E71211 concerning instructions to make this chassis more powerful. Mr Platford informed the Committee that he believed the owner desired maximum power, and he suggested that we should increase the compression of the engine by reducing the compression volume by one cubic inch, and that he should fit the larger carburetter and standard exhaust cutout, in order to get as good power as possible. Engines (Miscellaneous) (a) The Committee agreed to this procedure and that no extra charge should be made to the customer. X788 R | ||
