That article only convinces me that the RR is Aluminum and not Ci. So what??? What about the crank, pistons, valves etc. ????


From post#1 above:
"He mentioned that for the engine rebuild kit it was going to be $23,000 for genuine Rolls parts but after some research he bought and used Nash parts for the engine rebuild at a cost of $2,500. This begs the question - did Rolls acquire Packard's engine tooling, drawings. etc and develop their V8 from there?"

To me it begs the question: WHICH nash engine parts and WHAT Nash parts were used to rebui;ld the RR????
