Dear Mr.Skinner, I have now had a good run on the 25 HP. car fitted with your altered induction pipe, and so far am agreeably surprised with the slow running and consumption. We are going to confirm the top power figures on the test bed, and at the same time are putting a scheme in hand so that we can get proper cast induction pipes for this job. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
