DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}10/CB17-1-21. contd. The present Goshawk has an exhaust manifold based on "N" Scheme 684 but built up out of steel and welded, in order to get it quickly, with a flange connection at the bottom. We are proposing to adapt the exhaust pipe to this manifold and are proceeding with the exhaust pipe, the silencer, and the supporting brackets, so as to get the Goshawk in a condition to come to West WitteringHenry Royce's home town as quickly as possible.
