CHRYSLER BALANCE WEIGHTS. Will you please make a set of balance weights to the accompanying sketches. If they are made to the thickness shewn, they will be in balance and there will be no need to remove the crankshaft from 1V-G6 in order to fit them. We should like these as soon as possible in order to complete a test before the synchro-mesh gearbox is removed. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/H.Grylls.
