Re: HIGH PRESSURE PETROL PUMPS.

With reference to the copy of your Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}Gry.{Shadwell Grylls}3/R.12.8.37, we have successfully fitted a high pressure petrol pump to the following chassis:

3.BT.{Capt. J. S. Burt - Engineer}163 - Baker
3.AZ.20 - F.B.A. Ltd.

We have now received the 6 "T" pieces for olive joints which, as you state, will greatly facilitate the fitting of H.P. pumps on bodied chassis, and for which we thank you.

VA.
