| X1918B. Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Rm. {William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 3/KT. Your ref. LSMB/MSR. August 24th, 1932. K.L.G. Sparking Plugs Ltd, Robinhood Engineering Works, Putney Vale, London S.W.15. Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of the 22nd. August. We believe we gain a very definite advantage with the increased reach which we asked for on the 14 mm. plugs. We should, therefore, like you to make at least, a set of a dozen, in order that we may confirm that we require this reach. You may rest assured that we should not ask for a special plug unless we find it necessary for optimum performance. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
