Dear Sirs, For the attention of Mr. Mantell. ----------------------------------- With reference to your letter saying that the carburetters for our engine were ready. We have completed the induction pipe and should be glad if you would let us have the carburetters so that we can have everything ready for a run on the test bed before your representative comes to do the tests. We think that this will result in a saving of time from your point of view. If you could let us have the carburetters on Monday, we anticipate that we should be ready for a run on Wednesday. Yours faithfully, | ||
