To RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls}
mit
Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /Gry. {Shadwell Grylls} 3/KT.14.2.33.

CLUTCH PEDALS - PEREGRINE(Experimental Bentley car never produced / Aero Engine).

The pedals fitted to 4-PER-II do not give the right leverage, those with F. {Mr Friese} numbers being for the Borg & Beck clutch which has been scrapped.

By. {R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} will shortly be issuing correct pedals for future chassis.

In the meantime we should like the pieces F.100576/7 altered to F.100806, as soon as possible on 4-PER-II. (This also applies to 5-PER-II.)

The lever on the trunnion shaft should be to Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 672, 2.950" cts. {C. Trot Salt - Carburation} This lever may have a G. {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} number by now.
