To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} +308 Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/CTS.{C. Trot Salt - Carburation}14/KW.13.8.35. Induction Pipes. In conjunction with the induction pipe tests we are at present carrying out, re SpectreCodename for Phantom III and 20/25, will you please make a pipe as shown on the sketch Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2080. In this, we have applied a similar modification to that which has been found successful on 20/25. If we can improve a 2 carburetter system in the same way, the results may be applied to the 4 carburetter scheme which will go into production on the first SpectreCodename for Phantom IIIs.
