Bentley Clutch.

This is to ask you to urge the detailing of N.Sch.4435, showing an adaptation of the Borg and Beck clutch to the Bentley engine having 4-stud rear crankshaft bearing cap.

We believe we shall have details of the crankcase in about a week, and should like to test the assembly as soon as possible.
