To DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} -3- E1/G28/5/20 Contd. securing bolt, but thinks that a round clearance hole is all that is needed since the engine feet are at fixed centres, and there should be no need for adjusting the steering box sideways. Less pins should be used for fixing the steering box pad, the top and bottom ones should be retained and the horizontal ones should be cancelled. We return herewith the print of N. scheme 364 showing pencil marks illustrating part of Mr. Royce's criticisms in the foregoing. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
