MODIFIED CORED CYLINDER BLOCK FOR
B.111 AND WRAITH (ECD.871).

Regarding the cylinder head gasket which has been issued for the above as a C & A joint (EW.1924) we should like this deleted and replaced by a "klingerit 1000" gasket .030 thickness.

This drawing should include other than the material alteration, deletion of the unnecessary holes marked up on the attached print of EW.1924.
