| #51 To HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/JBD.{John B. Dixon - Fuel Systems}7/JH.17.11.38. 10.B.V. Will you please arrange to make a flange ring to mount the electric petrol reserve tap herewith on the tank of the above chassis. We also require an adaptor to suit the 3/8" pipe to the filter. The tank for the above chassis is not yet complete and if the rings are available in the next day or two there will be no difficulty in adapting the tap to the tank, that is before the baffles and end plates are fitted.
