| BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} FROM D.A C. to SG.{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD} HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X5250 DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}2/M1 5. 5. 31. ENGINE SUSPENSION AND LOWER RADIATOR. X.5250. X.5005. With further reference to N. scheme 3274. it does not appear to be necessary to provide any special apparatus for retaining the engine in approximate alignment when th front suspesion is removed. At the most it will be necessary to provide some temporary packing under the damper pad on which the engine can rest. We do not therefore propose to send you any further information on this point.
