Dear Sirs, When the writer was at your Works recently you showed him a maximum speed governor consisting of a spring loaded offset throttle. We should be glad to know whether you supply these as separate units, and if so what price you charge for 1 off. The size we are interested in is about 2 ins. bore. We beg to thank you for the larger jets for the 46 m.m. carburetter, which arrived yesterday. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
