6119 To [redacted]. from Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/HH. c. to Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} file Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/HH.1/SW.20.1.41. Myth B.40 Distributor. With reference to the reply from Lucas reference X/BGC/17, your reference Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/RC.{R. Childs}6/ET, there appears to be no reason why we should not use the plate suggested by Lucas i.e., 406601. This will require a slight modification to the distributor housing which will be modified in due course. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/HH. | ||
