CHASSIS - RE: PISTONS. ----------------------------- Referring to Sft{Mr Swift}/JMW.3/MW.8.12.34. based, of course, upon our request that the Works should go slow with machining 20/25 HP. pistons, as the Experimental Department were at that time anticipating lengthening the skirt of the 20/25 to bring it into line with the present type of Bentley, will you kindly note that the urgency in this direction has diminished considerably, and that I am therefore lifting the embargo on manufacture of pistons in bulk on the 20/25.
