| Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} ~~KSO~~ X8230 BY3/G.28.5.29. PHANTOM ENGINE - EXHAUST MANIFOLD JOINTINGS. If the special jointings made up as copper asbestos type with a steel liner for strength were able to be fitted satisfactorily, I would like to arrange for all replacements to be of this type. If you would let me know that the parts have been fitted satisfactorily, then I am certain that from the point of view of durability they must be an improvement and ought to be instructed up for replacement work.
