JAPAN 3. VALVE ROCKER GEAR & DETAILS OF CYLINDER HEAD.
We attach herewith LeC. 2864. shewing the above.
Would you kindly return two prints, one of which we shall send to R.{Sir Henry Royce}, and would you also send a print to HY.{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer} and RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} as we should like their comments.
LeC. 2864. completed the cyl. information except for the exhaust connection to the induction pipe jacket and a possible flange connection for water on the rear end.
We cannot give this information just at the moment but it need not hold up the main details.
