| To - D.{John DeLooze - Company Secretary} From E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Copy to C.L. [Text struck through] EPC. [Stamp: ORIGINAL RECEIVED JAN 3 1922] 3 EA/G1/1/21. X.422Y. RE "KITE" ENGINE - INDUCTION PIPE FLANGES. We send you herewith drawing No. Lec. 1327 shewing the carburettor and induction pipes with flanges for same on the "Kite" engine. As the carburettor as yet is entirely undecided this drawing gives you outside views only of the first scheme that has been drawn. The only information you have to work from Lec. 1327 concerns the induction pipe flanges, which will enable you to practically complete the loose head for the cylinder block. There will be connections for hot water and probably exhaust gas for heating the carburettor, but particulars of these will be sent later. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
