| contd: -2- standard Goshawk-ll patterns, but with an alteration carried out in the foundry. The float chamber may require a rough pattern making to get the low speed, and high speed jets in the correct relative positions. If so then the filter could be altered so as to clear and be accessible. If a special pattern is not made but the existing one utilised, then a separate filter could be fitted nearby the carburetter in the frame. No starter carburetter will be required on the float chamber as we intend to use as shewn on the drawings the 40/50 pattern. A petrol connection will be required for the starter carburetter on the float chamber. Mr. Royce wishes the dynamo starter motor, and starter gear completed on the chassis, and the carburetter has been specially arranged with a view to this being carried out.
