Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} R re 25-HP. Flexible Engine Mounting. Referring to the above, it will be necessary to alter the present scheme of water connections to introduce more flexibility. We send you herewith LeC.3920 showing the water connections. If it should be found that the rubber hoses are inclined to pull off the pipes due to the engine movement we shall have to introduce grooves at the ends of the pipes. However, at the moment we should like to try the simple scheme as shown on the drawing. Drawing to BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} Print to RHC.{R. H.
