Harrison Radiator Division.

Herewith a set of curves handed to me by Saunders, showing the performance of various radiator cores.
I understand you asked for them in a letter which you wrote to him.

I also attach a sketch showing the arrangement of the experimental Buick bye-pass, in which the thermostat is open when the engine is cold.
