We are proposing to fit lead bronze bearings to the unit out of 21-G-IV. While this is being done we are going to lend them C.10 unit to keep the car running. It is proposed to fit the lead bronze bearings up with .002 clearance, and we shall therefore have to go gently with the tests to make sure that this clearance is adequate.
