With reference to the half Fan Pulley Rim pressings E.52475, we suggest these should be permenently rivetted together before trimming out the groove, by 5 - .125 dia: c's'k steel rivets on a 3.450 pitch circle. We should like your views on this suggestion, as it affects the Goshawk II Spring Drive on LeC.1665, and the Seagull one shown on LeC.1670. Shn BY/Shn, | ||
