| TO DY.{F R Danby} FROM E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} ORIGINAL E1/M12. 7. 23. c. to GJ. c. to HH. c. to EPC. GOSHAWK 11. MAGNETO BRACKET. A 3551 We send you herewith drawing No. LeC. 1742 showing the above. The magneto on this drawing has been shewn in the position given on your Derby print but Mr. Royce would like it moved towards the rear about .1" which would have the effect of straightening the front face of the bracket as is explained in a note on the drawing. We think this can be done if the spring post of the L.T. rocker cover on the magneto is moved to the outer hole on the magneto end cover. It is understood of course that there is no alteration whatever to the bracket facing on the crankcase. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
