As promised we have gone into the question of the shape of the accessory piping on the 'SS{S. Smith}' engine, and we send you herewith drawings LeCs. 2612/3/4. dealing with the following:-

(1) Supply pipe to induction pipe jacket from cylinder head.
(2) Pipe from jacket to suction side of water pump.
(3) Low pressure oil pipe supplying oil to valve rockers.
(4) Oil pressure gauge pipe.
(5) Pipe from oil pump to oil relay operating ignition advance.
(6) Pipe from oil blow off casing to wheelcase.

As regards the other information not yet settled on this job, you will recollect that we have asked you to make a scheme for the side guards and apron underneath the wheelcase as this is best done with the aid of the model.
