| - 2 - the limits of cylinder bore size of the engines in which you propose to test the pistons. In connection with the cost for twelve only pistons, we have now gone very closely into this, and find we caan supply this number complete with rings and gudgeon pins ready for assembly to the engine, for the sum of 15/- each. We should be glad if you would let us have your covering order, as suggested at the time of the interview. We will exercise every possible effort to supply the pistons within the specified time of three weeks, and we should like to express our appreciation once again of your courtesy in waiting this time for the pistons to be made. Yours faithfully, pp THE LIGHT PRODUCTION CO. LTD. W.R.Brooks GENERAL MANAGER. | ||
