Bentley Brake Drums.

While you are making a pair of rear drums to EX.16387 for 5-B-IV, will you please put in hand a second set for 3-B-IV. We want to try one of these on one side of the car against the standard one on the other side, and measure temperatures with thermo couples in both rear brakes.
