Putting drone time on the race engine a couple years ago, my friend is watching the instrument panel... and yes, it does get a bit drafty up there at high power....

I have a small library of books about WWII aircraft engines. That era,to me,is the most interesting for engine development. It was a life or death horsepower race. And mrmotors can build up a racing Merlin! I'm blown away.

The BRITISH Merlin engine. The engine that made the Hurricanes and Spitfires the great planes they were. Then the U.S. put it in the P51, I believe, and turned it into the plane it became.

Yup, that is correct. The Merlin made the Mustang what it is. And, yes, it is VERY British......a 19000 piece jigsaw puzzle...... Like Sir Hives of RR said, " We can engineer the simplicity right out of it."
