RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} P3. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}12/KT.24.10.32. 3rd. PEREGRINE - EXHAUST SYSTEM. Will you please make up an exhaust system for this car having a manifold, downtake, and expansion box, and silencer as shown on Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}730. We think that the silencer is already made, the parts requiring manufacture being the 2nd. detachable front expansion box. We do not want to destroy the one straight through pipe, s.100623, which is available, as it is very useful for test purposes. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rm.{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} | ||
