Will you please have the H.P. pump I will supply mounted on the O.S. front engine foot to LeC. 5772 on the above chassis. This scheme shows a large AC mechanical pump as this pump is not available the existing T type pump will be utilized instead. The SU petrol pump to be left on the dash but pipes and wiring disconnected

The new parts required are

1 Sheet steel bracket.
1 flexible pipe.
1 pipe junction to carry flexible pipe.

Alterations to pipe work and wiring, the latter to be connected up to the A position on the trial switch . This is to be fitted before the car goes to France.
