LR{Mr Ellor}/FMR [crossed out] TLT/GD/4.5.40 Messrs. Rolls-Royce Limited, DERBY Attention of Mr. Swindon Dear Sirs, We have now been able to look into the question of the possibility of using a 30 mm. Throttle Body on the A.A.25 Stromberg carburetter, and we find this is a practical proposition. Therefore it is possible to have the standard float and jet body and alter the Throttle Body from 30 to 42 mm. if necessary. { ? [handwritten bracket and question mark] We hope this information will prove of help to you, and remain, Yours faithfully, THE ZENITH CARBURETTER CO.LTD. [Signature] General Manager. TLT/GD | ||
