Rig for testing Borg & Beck Clutches. Now that the rig is completed and working very satisfactory we suggest that a space on a bench be found for it in the flywheel and clutch bay, so that it will be available for testing clutches on production, also for use of repair and exptl. depts. when required. The bench space required would be about three feet. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/NRC.{N. R. Chandler} | ||
