Wraith Engine.
Please receive herewith:-
LeC.4164 and LeC.4163 which we re-issue to you.
The latter drawing has been brought up to date, correcting the height of the cylinder to suit the length of connecting rod and piston.
These two drawings make it possible to put the following detail drawings in hand. The main bearings and caps, tappets and tappet covers, crankcase, cylinder, liners, camshaft.
The cam curves, and timing will follow early next week.
