| X6096 To RHC{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from EFC. c. HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/AJL. EFC2/T6.12.27. Herewith we hand to you two mushroom type rotors, the key-way of which has been altered to suit the timing of the standard lever instead of the off-set lever for which these mushroom rotors were originally designed. As we are rather short of rotor fingers we should be pleased if you would provide and fit the fingers for these two rotors and put these on the distributors on the two 10,000 mile cars, 12-EX and 9-G3 in place of the present standard rotors, which we should like to have returned.
