Messrs. Delco Remy & Hyatt Ltd.,
111, Grosvenor Road,
LONDON, S.W.1

For the attention of Mr. Rushton.

Dear Sir,

We are despatching to you to-day under separate cover, one of the first Delco Distributors for alteration.

Will you please have this distributor altered to the enclosed curve. We are rather anxious to improve the performance between 2,875 and 3,350 r.p.m. This is the main difference between the enclosed curve and the last curve which you made.

I should be very pleased if you would have the distributor addressed to the writer on return, to save delay.

Yours faithfully,

FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED.
