We shall be glad therefore if you will please allocate one of the manifolds now in course of manufacture to the above chassis, and if you will let us know when it is available we will arrange for its despatch. If there are any special instructions in regard to the fitting up of this pipe which you consider should be sent to Rv. will you please let us know? Will D/BP. please note that in addition to the above it has been decided to send out a new choke valve with Nitralloy spindle and cast iron bushes, for fitting to this car.
