RR 238 (150 BKS.) (DB{Donald Bastow - Suspensions} 461-8-12 x4) MP 306975 X7791 ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. INSTRUCTIONS. To E.7.C. Order No. WC87 Customer's No. X 7791 Watford EW6 magnetos. With reference to the above we have a few points to raise with Messrs North's as follows:- ① We should like an answer to our enquiry as to the reason why they have used a pin location for the H.T. rotor instead of the horse shoe location so much commended by their goodselves? ② Would they be in a position to alter the four magnetos we have returned to them to continuous cam rings as well as slow make cams? Signed contd This Sheet must be filed on completion of the work. | ||
