The Mustang only worked because the British replaced the Allison engine with a Merlin as an experiment.
Hooie...
I’ve met multiple times with all the guys that run the Roush V12 shop in Detroit, and hands down, the Packard is their iteration of choice.
Per their critique, the original Allisons were far from ready for prime time, the British RR’s were “Hand fit, but only once“, and “never again”” while the Packards were “built to tenths, and everything still fits,” (80 Years later) engine to engine, part to part.
