Bentley Cylinder Head.

Please receive herewith:-

LeC.5367 showing the above.

On this design the inlet ports have been increased in area, the head has been deturbulated, and the thickness of the combustion chamber has been cut down to what we think is a minimum.

It will be noticed that provision has been made so that any standard sparking plug can be fitted.

This job should be instructed experimentally, as soon as possible.

LeC.5367 herewith.
