| BENDIX PRODUCTS CORPORATION SUBSIDIARY OF BENDIX AVIATION CORPORATION GENERAL OFFICES AND PLANT SOUTH BEND, INDIANA May 19, 1937 Rolls Royce, Ltd. Derbyshire, England (Nightingale Road) Attention: Mr. W. A.{Mr Adams} Robotham Experimental Engineer. Dear Mr. Robotham:-- After many delays, we have finally prepared the layout of the large dual carburetor which you requested and I am sending this both to you and to the attention of Mr. T.L.Turner of the English Zenith Office. We have endeavored to make the layout rather complete and have specified dimensions which we think will approximate those needed for a first trial. This construction, of course, should follow that of the sample AA{D. Abbot-Anderson} carburetors which we have already sent you and regarding which by the way we will be glad to receive any reports of performance. We trust this will give you most of the information desired and if we can be of further assistance, please advise us. Very truly yours, BENDIX PRODUCTS CORPORATION Stromberg Carburetor Division Frank C. Mock Frank C. Mock Vice President fcm-c (encls.) | ||
