X7230 C. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} BY/Cgh{W Clough}6/K.{Mr Kilner} 22. 6. 28. F-2-B SERIES CHASSIS. In reply to Mx{John H Maddocks - Chief Proving Officer}2/T20.6.28., we have now arranged for the bolts securing the rear down take pipe to the exhaust manifold to be inverted so that the nuts are on the top which can be tightened up by a special long box spanner which we are providing. We consider that this alteration should be retrospective on F-2-B series chassis, therefore we would like to know if Sft.{Mr Swift} will arrange accordingly. BY/Cgn. | ||
