IMPROVED CAMSHAFT. X4229

We suggest it might be considered advisable for some of our Trials Cars to be fitted with the improved Camshaft which will give increase in performance. A standardisation sheet for this Camshaft is on its way round for signatures.

We should require a weeks notice to prepare the Camshafts. It would be necessary for the car to come to the Works for the change. We should not recommend any quantity of Camshafts to be changed.
