25/30 H.P.Chassis.

Dynamo Drive rattle. Chassis GTL.14. Dynamo No.27.

With reference to memo dated the 31st.ult.,received from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux}in connection with the dynamo drive on the above chassis,we have already altered the limits in order to improve the fit of the rubber driving blocks and to give a more consistent assembly than originally.

The rubber blocks are now being obtained with a durometer reading of 70-75.

With the above alterations it is considered that the coupling should be satisfactory.
