| R.{Sir Henry Royce} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to BJ. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} 4708 o.{Mr Oldham} E4/M24.3.28. EAC. 10 CYL: HEAD. X.7050 X.7070 X.7080 Since sending you a blueprint of LeC.2528 - Induction Pipe - we have made a modification as shewn on the attached further print, enlarging the niche in the induction pipe to make it worth while, and carrying the induction pipe jacket straight up without interruption. The modification does not appear to interfere with cleaning out and inspecting the interior of the cyl. head water jacket. We should like to know if you wish us to carry on with the std. carburetter scheme, so that we shall have this in addition to the new type carburetter. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
