| E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Dept. c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. Sft.{Mr Swift} X50165 88160. BY4/G.5.1.28. RECEIVED F.2 SERIES. Please note that we shall incorporate on F.2 series the modification to the crankcase round the oil pump section, made with the object of stiffening up the case - this of course also modifies the oil pump drive. The Experimental Department are building this into the Sports chassis at the moment, and therefore any points which may require consideration will have been brought up and settled before we reach the stage of production.
