25/30 Distributor.

With reference to our Standardisation Sheet calling for the fitting of a Peregrine type distributor head to the distributor on the 25/30 HP. chassis, we wish to make it clear that the H.T. rotor should be of the latest type incorporating your modification for balancing and the short rotor blade with Phospher bronze spring and single screw fixing.

A further points is that the engraving on the head will have to be renumbered to suit the 25/30.
