| To RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} x200a Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Std7/JH.9.1.36. Radiator for 6-B-IV. We wish to be able to run an alternative radiator on 6-B-IV, in case the 52 m.m. matrix at present fitted is inadequate. We have ordered a 58 m.m. Mk.{R. E. B. Meade-King} VI matrix from Messrs John Marston, and shall receive same in approximately one week. Will you please fit this up with the top tank from the old 5-B-IV radiater (which we will hand you) and a new bottom tank to EB.2584, so that it is interchangeable with 6-B-IV matrix.
