Yea that's it Bonehead. It's either an Allison Aircraft or a Rolls Royce Merlin Aircraft engine but I'm not sure which.
I think I have two or three more photos fellas, stand by.

No further info Flipper but here are some more photos. Obviously the car is still in progress.

I don't think that motor is big enough to be an Allison. Maybe some other V-12?

Judging by the other cars in the background, this thing must be from the Blastolene Brothers Shop.
This maybe? If so, it is a 770 cibic inch Ranger V12...much smaller than an Allison (by 1,000 cubic inches)

Just wanted to pay amish to the O.G. of "Fresh Thinking"! This guy is one of my all time favorite people! Had tons of his posters and t-shirts when I was a kid.

I like him most because he put a 406 Ford engine in a 55 Chevy. We need more guys like that today!!.
