| X8090 Mr. Shelton. c. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}, CAMSHAFTS. E.A.C.II. BY5/H.{Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} 18.12.24. Referring to Sft{Mr Swift}10/EMM. 17.12.24. I have discussed the position with Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} and it has been agreed that in view of the extremely exacting demands of Sales, we cannot modify from the low lift cam and the angles specified on same, therefore it will be necessary for us to scrap not only the finished shafts but the partly finished ones. This means that we should get on at once with the cam formers, altering the existing ones if possible. BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} | ||
