EAC-V11.X7770 We anticipate it will be 4 or 5 weeks before we have a Phantom engine running with the new aluminium head and cylinders. The patterns for the head and cylinders are nearing completion. It will be at least 8 or 9 weeks before an EAC-V11 chassis can be completed. A number of the outstanding parts for this chassis are given in EY1/H28.8.26 progress report.
