We have instructions to provide this chassis with a high compression cylinder head, and we note from BY/Cgh.{W Clough}I/G.6.4.35 that we are not yet in a position to supply this on production chassis. We are therefore asked by Sales Dept; when we shall be in a position to do this as they understand that as a result of the recent discussion between 'Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}' and 'Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}' it has been agreed that chassis for France shall be equipped with this high compression cylinder head. D/BP | ||
