Power Plant of Freedom
The Rolls Royce Merlin engine started out as a 790 hp V12 plagued by reliability problems, gear-train failures, and faulty water jackets. Adding a two-speed, two-stage supercharger boosted power but also heated incoming air so much it caused premature ignition. An air cooler between supercharger stages solved the ignition problem, and a fuel-injection system was also added. Horsepower climbed to 1,420. High-octane gas imported from the U.S. pushed it to 2,050 hp. Further refinements focused on improving the engine’s reliability and ability to withstand abuse. Over 160,000 Merlin engines were built in 52 versions, including 16,000 built in the U.S. at the Packard Co.
