20 HP. CHASSIS.
-----------

Please note that it is important in view of the heavier pistons we are likely to fit owing to the increased bore that we should not reduce the weight of the flywheel and clutch on the 20 HP. chassis, as this would tend to increase the amplitude of the over-running vibration.
