Good 'pick up' from slow running on top gear when the throttle is suddenly opened is another of the desirable features we wish to preserve.

Apart from the use of two carburetters, we also wish to test one carburetter which, if it gives as good performance as two carburetters, would certainly be preferable.

We should be glad to know what carburetters you could offer us for trial on this engine.


Yours faithfully,
