| TO HS. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} FROM R. {Sir Henry Royce} X2048 R2/M24.11.26. MAGNETO FOR SINGLE CYL. ENGINE. I want a magneto fir a single cyl. engine with impulse starter, suitable for chain drive. I understand that such a magneto would go at half engine speed. The engine runs at about 500 RPM. Please have it be delivered here as quick as ever possible? I understand the ML. is not suitable for chain drive: perhaps the BTH. is? R. {Sir Henry Royce} | ||
