RE F.11. CAMSHAFTS

With reference to Camshafts for the 25. F.11. Engines, these have been prepared in a rough machined condition, leaving the cams unformed. The only reason for this was, we anticipated there was likely to be some alteration since the experiments with the long duration cams are going forward.

We should be glad to know whether we are to proceed with these Camshafts in accordance with E.30006 Cam forms, or whether sufficient information is available to give us a modified cam form.
