Coverley - Production Engineer} Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} Phantom II Valve Gear. We send you herewith a drawing Lec.3938 of a steel push rod for the above engine. This push rod is just over twice as rigid as the standard one and it will be interesting to see the effect of this greater rigidity on the valve gear characteristics. Drawing to By.{R.W.
