RE. PHANTOM ALUMINIUM HEAD.

X. 8050

We send you herewith drawing No.LeC.2212., shewing some information not given on LeC.2204 in connection with the above.

Since communicating with you concerning the details for this job we have received a memo. from R.{Sir Henry Royce} which will call for slight modifications in connection with the induction pipe flanges and the end sparking plug holes. We are on with this now.

If the one pin is found insufficient to hold the sparking plug insert in LeC.2212 we could possibly use two, one on each side.

A print of LeC.2212 is attached to Mr. Royce's copy of this memo. for his criticism.
