Bentley 80 Pulley Rig.

We are anxious to make a rig for testing B.80 triangle belt drives, and for this we shall require a B.80 water pump, a crankshaft pulley and a dynamo mounting.

We are proposing to use a Lucas dynamo so shall only require pulleys for this job.

We are anxious to get this on test as soon as possible and should be glad if you would supply the parts at your earliest convenience.
