B. 80. SCD. 1398. Single Belt Drive with W.80 Water Pump. Section. 5160. Water Pump and Fan. With reference to memo Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/ED.{J. L. Edwards}3/GH.3. 4. 40 we are sending herewith 2 blueprints of the following LOP's RE. 935. Water Pump and Fan LOP B. 60. RE. 936. Water Pump and Fan LOP B. 80. Please instruct these LOP's in accordance with your requirements. We would point out that SCD.1395 calls for a steel spring in the water circulation. If a BZ/FD{Frank Dodd - Bodies} spring is required we can detail one at a later date. We have, contrary to our usual practice, [text crossed out] issued a number of experimental drawings. We will, however, re lace these by our usual numbers at the first opportunity. This completes instructions for this section, for the above rationalised engines. Herewith prints of marked up scheme to SCD. 1398. Instruction for the B.40. Water Pump & Fan is at present in hand, as we have only just received scheme PL. 202.
