Referring to Cx.{Major Len W. Cox - Advertising Manager}8/KW.13.11.34.
We have now gone further into the specification of this unit and find that in addition to the cylinder head and connecting rods it will be necessary to change the camshaft and timing gears.
We are asking Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} to let you have an estimate of the cost, plus the cost of any repairs necessary to the chassis, in due course.
