| -2- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Cwdl.6/JH.20.2.39. shown in their layout L1118. (5) We have no basic induction system for the B.60 unit and up to the present have all been 'Mock up' systems. We should like drawings for the Continental Bentley V system as adapted to B.60 unit. This system includes 2 S.U. carbs. 1.75" and induction manifold of the same dimensions blending into the square B.60 ports. Although having a hand controlled mixture lever the system should cater for automatic starting. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Cwdl. | ||
