We understand that the rig for chrome plating cylinder bores is now complete. We are therefore sending to the plating shop for your attention three cylinder blocks on which to try out this process. To begin with we shall only use the best of the three for trial, as these are second hand blocks. O/N.52444. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/CTS.{C. Trot Salt - Carburation} | ||
