Dude, Greeny was just joking. Anyway, I don't believe any of your posts BOFF...all ONE of them. Jet engine in a spitfire...HAHAHAHA...ROFL!!!

PSICYCLE, not ALL piston aircraft engines are clunkers...there are a handful out there that are worthy. Besides, not many car engines can make 300+ HP at only 2500 RPM's with the same displacement as some airplane engines.

Piston airplane engines are all "clunkers" when compared to high performance car engines.

The cardinal is a cessna 177 I think he was just listing the basic cessna line-up. There's a bunch more like the cessna 303, 310, 337, 340, 402, 414, 421, etc...the list goes on.

I was refering to the "Black Project"
Fokker/Martin B23-C Spitfire.
You can find more out about this aircraft
at www.FAS.org.

Whatever you say dude...we still don't believe you. Greeny SPECIFICALLY said in his fictional post WORLD WAR TWO supermarine spitfire. He also SPECIFICALLY said he found the ROLLS ROYCE MERLIN engine. So, how could you have been referring to the "Black Project" Fokker/Martin B23-C Spitfire??? Sounds to me like you're just trying to cover up your lack of knowledge of what a merlin engine is. Oh yeah, I couldn't find any info on this supposed "black project" at the FAS website even when I did a search. I did find some info when I searched with altavista but it was only on testing of the B23 engine in the Wellington bomber and the Gloster Meteor at the end of WWII. Nice try BOFF.

"a tribute to the engineering skills of the time"...

Now I know this is a work of fiction - British engines have always been made out of paper and glue, and have the life expectancy of snow balls in hell. Thats why most of us Brits drive Jap cars !
