| Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Mths.{Reg Matthews} K200 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}18/KW. 23.9.35. Large Bore Bentley Powers. We want an exact comparison between a large and small bore Bentley engine power output. Each engine should have the same compression ratio, valve sizes and induction system. As long as both are the same the quantities do not matter. Will you please arrange to do this. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
