re INCORPORATION OF EAC.14 IMPROVEMENTS ON STANDARD CARS.
-------------------------------------------------

The best that we can do in the above direction on F.2 series is to include half way through the series the following items :-

a/- New head.
b/- Cylinder block to suit same.
c/- Piston to suit same.
d/- Inlet and Exhaust manifolds.
e/- Radiator with integral shutters.

It is not expedient to incorporate the cast dash, as this would mean a considerable amount of scrap, and could not be arrived at except by moving the engine forward, which would materially increase the expense of the change.
