| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to RG.{Mr Rowledge} X4003 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}5/LG19.10.28. LONG DURATION CAMSHAFTS FOR F.{Mr Friese} ENGINE. We consider that RG.{Mr Rowledge} should supply the drawings and design for the long duration camshafts. We have handed to RG.{Mr Rowledge} particulars of the camshafts we made experimentally. The experimental camshafts cannot be looked upon as a proved design, they were made to carry out certain experimental tests. As it has now been proved that there are advantages in longer duration cams, a design should be got out by the D.O. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
