Bullið í þessum mönnum er allveg agalegt þessi RR mótor skilar í mestalagi 1400 hestöflum ekki 3000 Hp eins og þulurinn segir og þá bara þegar búið var að stilla hann og yfirfara sem tók venjulega óratíma.. og í myndbandinu þegar hann var að keyra þá hóstaði mótorinn og reykti og skilað örrugglega ekki nema kannski 500 hp..
Einnig má nefna að þetta er Rolls Royce Packard mótor úr P51 Mustang fjöldaframleiddur í USA í stríðinu
Hérna er góð lýsing:
As for the wonderful 1,650 ci (27-litre) Rolls Royce Merlin aircraft engine, a lot of bull has been written about them over the years. There was an Australian-built '55 Chevy a while ago with a Merlin fitted, and painted up to look like a P51 Mustang. I remember seeing it at the Hot Rod show in Sydney, when it was promoted as having a '3,000-hp engine from a fighter plane'. In fact, Merlins didn't produce anywhere near 3,000 hp. The first 'Merlin II' variants at the start of the war produced 1,310 hp on 100-octane fuel with a single-stage, single speed supercharger. By the end of the war, the Mk66 was up to 1,720 hp with a two-stage, two-speed supercharger (used on the Spitfire Mk9). The ultimate Merlin was the Merlin 130/131, fitted to the DH Hornet, which produced 2,060 hp.

A RAF engineering officers joke: Whats the difference between a fighter pilot and his aircraft? The plane stops whining when you shut down the engines.

Re: Merlin undir húddinu
Hérna er mikið betri útskýring hvernig er að setja svona stóran mótor í bíl.
