| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} 2508 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/CTS.{C. Trot Salt - Carburation}3/KW.1.7.35. Induction Pipes. We hand you herewith Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2052. Ex.18316/7 we know now the approximate position for placing the "Stromberg" automatic choke, and "Fast-Idle" device. After obtaining 4 castings from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2014, will you please have the exhaust manifold altered to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2052, this can be used with the induction pipe as shown on Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2014.
