Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Lid. {A. J. Lidsey} 6/MA. 8.11.32.

PEREGRINE(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine) EXHAUST.

Will you please make for 1-per. II an extension to the main silencer with the outlet at the top as on Scheme 1621. A 40/50 type of outlet flange (2.00" diam) should be used so that we can try various sizes of fish tail pipe. We shall require a longer control tube (7.875" longer than the existing one) to suit this extension. This should not be drilled. A fish tail pipe 1.750" in diam will also be required.
