| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner} X230. E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner}7/HP.25.5.33. c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} re Bentley Induction System. We send you herewith: LeC.3509, showing a venturi centre piece between the two induction pipes. Will you please instruct this to be fitted to the first 15 cars. Owing to the flange of the distance piece being .2" thick, it will be necessary to take this amount off the end of the induction pipes. This shape of venturi has been tested, as reported in Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}1/KT.24.5.33. E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner} | ||
