'SS{S. Smith}' BOTTOM HALF AND OIL FILTER.
We recommend that the 'SS{S. Smith}' bottom half is instructed with the oil filter inlet re-ground [handwritten annotation: turned round] 180º and the baffle brought close to the filter inlet. The holes in the baffle should be 4.375". We will let you have a sketch shewing the position of this.
