We send you herewith a sketch, Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}933, of an induction pipe for trying three carbs. on Bensport. The dimensions of the pipe are as recommended by the S.U. Co. Three 1 1/4" throttle bore carburetters are placed symmetrically along the pipe feeding pairs of cylinders, each requiring a hot spot. We hope with this scheme to get the maximum power at high speeds. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Gry.{Shadwell Grylls} | ||
