| To EH. from BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} X2748 2nd August, 1916. By7/G2816. RE ALUMINIUM PISTON FOR CARS. Referring to Mr. Royce's latest sheet asking us to produce an aluminium piston for the car, I am sending you herewith a rough sketch giving the proposed clearances. I would like to have your views on the matter, as to whether the suggested figures are sufficient. Obviously, we must keep the clearances as small as possible. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} RussB | ||
