| - 3 - and camshaft right, lowering the depression by a further 2" should give us 200 B.H.P. with a good low speed pick up since we still have 7" of water depression to pull the petrol out of the jet full throttle 10 M.P.H. As we told you yesterday, Bentleys get 220 H.P. on the 8 litre. We send you some data of valve details on modern American engines.
