| X 219. To Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} By/SS.{S. Smith} E.2/HP.16.2.33. re Bensport Cylinder Head and Piston. This is to remind you that you are looking into the question which has been raised in connection with the piston top on Bensport not being level with the top of the cylinder block, as is usual with all RR. turbulent head engines. Until this point is settled we are unable to issue instructions for the cylinder head. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
