The position of the Peregrine induction pipe is that we have no cast pipe fit to run on the road. We have proved on the test bed that by making a back-water above the uptake, we can improve the distribution. We also know that if we bring the hot spot down to the throttle we are better off. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} has incorporated these modifications in a scheme which we handed to you today. We want to do the best we can to reproduce this scheme. The scheme shows a J.II. size of carburetter but we shall have to fit the Peregrine carburetter as we have room for nothing else. lis/Rn.{Mr Robinson} | ||
