LEC 3755 RE: 20/25 and 40/50 HP. CHASSIS - DYNAMO DRIVE PINION. With reference to the eccentrically mounted dynamo pinion scheme which you have had fitted up on experimental cars, the Works inform us that they consider it would be an improvement from the point of view of obtaining quiet engine gears on production, therefore if you are satisfied that the scheme is satisfactory from your point of view no doubt you will issue standardisation sheets to cover both chassis.
