GOSHAWK IGNITION. X3465 E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} is sending our new arrangement for the coil, distributor, and wiring. There are on these drawings one or two modifications as alternatives. These should be tried as quickly as ever possible. We think it will be manifest which arrangement is to be preferred directly we put them on a car. Up to the present the coil cases must still be made in stabilite. R. {Sir Henry Royce} [STAMP: RECEIVED DEC 2 1922 No 2] | ||
