Re: CHASSIS B.210.GA - Mr. CHAGNAUD.
We have tightened up the main bearings of this car and fitted RR.56 liners to mains and big-ends.
Please find attached our "Report upon Sinkage of Bearings and Alteration to Liners".
We found the main bearings to be lightly scored. The surface of the big-ends was O.K. We carried out an oil test after effecting the above work and this was satisfactory.
