Reverting to a proven crankshaft lubrication system and incorporating a Buick-type cooler in a revised design.

Identifier  ExFiles\Box 131\1\  scan0122
Date  16th June 1933
  
- 2 - E.7/HP.16.6.33.

We are reverting to the system of crankshaft lubrication which has done so well on the 20/25, so that in the end there will be no reason for high oil temperatures developing on J.3.

We propose however to incorporate a Buick type ofcooler in the revised design.
