20/25 and 40/50 HP. CHASSIS - LAGGING CLIPS ON EXHAUST PIPES.

We find there is not much advantage to be gained by changing the clips on the swan neck lagging over to the Jubilee type, excepting perhaps from the aspect of fitting Jubilee clips all round. These are smaller and simpler in design than the Staybrite clips previously dealt with, and are purchased outside for very little more than Jubilee clips would cost.

Our suggestion is to go ahead with dull nickel silver finish(not nickel silver)Jubilee clips to replace the present Staybrite clips(6 off)on 20/25 HP. and 40/50 HP. chassis.
