Re Battery Ignition

I had meant to write you before that in response to Mr. Clark's re-
quest we have sent you a complete double ignition head of correct
rotation for the Phantom engine, with two American Bosch ignition
heads and coils, etc.

We omitted to send spare points but are sending two pairs right
away.

I hope your tests will confirm the very excellent results we get
from these heads.

The coils and heads are for 12 Volt.

Yours very truly,

Maurice Olley
