I have two copies at present Graham, I'm not sure I want a third!.
However, I picked fathers copy up, seems to have been annotated.
The camber as noted seems to be pretty close to what I measured on my mystery springs yesterday, and by my lower photo therefore pretty close to what Ian sets them at.
Trouble is still says that they should have 7 leaves (for my 1928 car).
My guess is that the leaf thickness varied with model also, given this is one of the drivers of stiffness.
I will get the calipers out on the chummy, cup RL and RP and take a view, a chummy being considerably lighter than the RP.
Looks like I'm going to have to put my finger in the air, see which way the wind is blowing and take a view on them.
Anyone with anything to contribute please do, I am unlikely to do anything to the car until they start putting salt on the road.
