Hi!

I'm looking for this engine's dimensions and how did it installed into the spitfire-s...mostly the brackets...and some picterure of a Spitfire without the engine...because I'm a modeller and I want to made a Spitfire Mk XIV. in 1:48 scale.

Thanks!

Try this zolej for a starter. Bracket for a Mk V spitfire.

Thank's a lot! But the Spitfire mk V and XIV's mounting is not the same...unfortunetly...because the mk V had a Merlin engine...
Mk XIV had this mounting:

Sorry zolej

All I have on the Griffon mounting's are simular picture's like the one you posted but will keep looking.
