Thanks for posting this website page. I particularly like this one of the Packard Merlin V-1650 cross section line drawing. That would be cool to have poster-size in your "Packard garage"! If anyone asks, just say that it's the next engine going into your Packard.

Dave,

Here's the one I have seen before: 55 Chevy with Merlin V-12. According to the video, it's a Rolls-Royce built engine, but of course, it just as easily could have been a Packard built one.

In either vehicle, it is almost infinitely more expensive than a life-size wall poster of the engine cross section. I do have one of a Pontiac Super Duty 455 though!

JW,

That blueprint cross-section of the Merlin V-12 is WAY COOL!
