It will be remembered that there were 30 chassis changed over to the large bore engine. The 30 engines concerned were code numbered with the first 30 numbers of "G" series, this means that before you finish "G" series you will have to find 30 new Code Numbers. We would please ask you not to use the Code Numbers of "H" series for this purpose, but take the last 30 numbers of "G" series Code List and place the letter "A" after the numbers as is our usual practice.
