6119 1044 To Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} from Jnr.{Charles L. Jenner} c. to Ev{Ivan Evernden - coachwork}/HH. Jnr.{Charles L. Jenner}1/JH.28.2.40. B.60 & B.80 H.T. Wiring Tubes. We attach herewith two prints of PL.126 B.60 H.T. tubes for Delco Distributor, PL.127 B.80 H.T. tubes for Delco Distributor. Owing to the introduction of the oil filler to the rocker cover we are not able to use the round tubes and rather than ask for a special shape of tube we have designed the tubes to be made out of flat sheet and formed to shape which is inexpensive. The brackets are bolted to the skirt of the cylinder head and some bosses are necessary eventually to be added to the head casting. At the same time we show how the brackets can be attached until such times as we get the aforesaid bosses. Will Mr. Hunt kindly note that all the pieces have been detailed at the Squash Court and only require part numbers to be added to the drawings. Herewith are the 8 detail drawings. Jnr.{Charles L.
