| BY, from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to BJ. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} X8000 E1/M11.10.27. SPORTS PHANTOM - OIL LEVEL INDICATOR X.8000 AND LOWER HALF CRANKCASE. X.8200 We send you herewith LeC.2473 shewing the above. This scheme clears up the oil base details, and in one or two respects calls for modifications to LeC.2471. The oil base has been made deeper on LeC.2473 to take full advantage of the space allow above the road clearance line. We have now to send you particulars of the magneto base, and vacuum pump mounting, which should complete the instructions for the new crankcase. These particulars will follow shortly.
