BENTLEY 111 - ENGINE MOUNTING. 422 Can we have the dimension 'A' shewn on the above sketch, for a Wraith engine fitted with the standard Bentley carburetters, air intake pipe and air silencer, mocked up on the Wraith induction pipe. Plans We think the overhang of these parts will affect the dimension given us previously for Wraith. O.K [Signature] We have not yet had a dimension for the C.G. in the side view on either engine.
