With reference to the attached.

We have no new parts available to give increase in power on the Phantom 11. The next increase we are contemplating is the larger engine.

JLE. {J. Lee Evans - Chassis Test Manager} ought to be in a position to say whether the present car gives the performance we anticipate. We have nothing to recommend as regards increase in performance.

The other criticisms which were raised can no doubt be overcome.

Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}

Returned herewith C.13/04.10.33.
