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}
