| Mr.Ainsworth. -2- 4th. August 1938. I hope that you have tried the tin-plated pistons, and would once again remind you that if you are in any trouble with the big end bearings on engines, from which, for any specified reason, you wish to get the maximum output, our aluminium tin big end bearings will carry about twice the load of any babbitt we have so far handled. We would remind you of your promise to visit us here at Derby, and suggest that if you cannot manage an earlier date, you might combine your visit here with your trip to the Motor Show. Yours sincerely, | ||
