X.4238 To Da.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} c. to CJ. X.4227 c. to WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} X.4238. c. to Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. to BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} c. to EFC. E3/G24.2.21. RE. GOSHAWK 11 INDUCTION AND EXHAUST PIPES. We send you herewith LeC.1356 shewing the above. For the purpose of simplifying the attachment of these pipes to the cylinder head, and making a neater job of the uniform joint flanges, we have discarded the dogs and studs for the end joints of the pipes, and it is necessary to make some slight modification to the cylinder head in consequence.
