FEELER GAUGES FOR SS.{S. Smith}

With reference to R1/M8/12.28. our impression was that R.{Sir Henry Royce} intended the tappet clearance to be .006 with the new cam forms which we have on SS.{S. Smith} However, will you please confirm if you are in agreement with the sizes specified on the above memo.
