+1245 To W/Levallois - Sr/VA. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie} 26/JH.18.5.36. Shock Damper Bush Clearances: I have discussed your Sr/VA.14/ET.11.5.36. with Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}/SB{Mr Bull/Mr Bannister}, and arrangements are being made for us to try out your reamer before it leaves the Works. I am pleased you mentioned this point as the production reamers are inclined to make the bore of the bushes too large. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Les.{Ivan A. Leslie} | ||
