RE LIGHTER PHANTOM
ENGINE.
------------------
With reference to E1/M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} 13.10.26. we are arranging for a valve rocker cover for the lighter phantom engine to be produced in "Electron" metal. We have also reduced the thickness of the cover from .150 to .125, with a view to making a further reduction in weight.
