No. B.3 Unit - Chassis 4-B-IV.
Will you please rebuild this unit with standard pistons, EB.1299, to replace the aerolite pistons you have just removed.
With regard to the aerolite pistons, will you please make a chart of the dimensions, similar to the charts you have already made for aerolite pistons, so that we can check over the skirt distortion and any wear that has taken place.
