FROM E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} C. to HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} SPORTS PHANTOM CRANKCHAMBER. X8000 There is one point in connection with the above which we have omitted to mention, that is, the oil gallery pipe is being modified to suit the new position of the carrier wheel in the wheelcase. The boring for this pipe will be of smaller diameter and lower in position, and the construction of the pipe itself will be somewhat different. Particulars of this will be sent at the earliest possible moment. We are posting to you today a scheme of the magneto base. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
