6th August, 1937.

Raymond Mays, Esq.,
The English Racing Automobiles Ltd.,
Bourne, Lincs.

Dear Mays,

With regard to your telephone enquiry, an oil pressure of 3 1/2 lbs at tick-over and 24 lbs at high speeds is entirely in order on your car.

We do not recommend the fitting of stronger relief valve spring.

Yours sincerely,
