EAC.10 GEARBOX. X.7000

We send herewith the following N.schs. shewing the above gearbox and clutch casing :-

N.scheme 2488
2450
2451
2452/ 2514.
243
241x

These drawings are we think self explanatory.

The bolting at the bottom of the clutch casing will be slightly modified as compared with what we have previously sent, and will require modification to the crankcase.

It will be noticed that the position of the servo is different from that on the general arrangement of the car.

The speedometer is for the new larger square which we are counting on being able to get.

We shall be sending you a further drg. shewing additional sections through the clutch casing in the course of a day or so. This will also include the position of the front brake equaliser shaft.
