RE 40/50 H.P. CARBURETTOR AND INDUCTION PIPES.

In accordance with Mr. Royce's instructions, we send you herewith an advance print of one of the two schemes of 40/50 H.P. induction system which are being prepared to meet American conditions. Mr. Royce thought you might start somebody rigging an experiment up on the lines of this blue print, so that the work could be going on during your visit to West WitteringHenry Royce's home town.

A similar blue print to the one attached has also been sent to America.

E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}
