Using criteria previously mentioned, the Westland Whirlwind must count.
The Rolls-Royce Peregrines were designed from the outset to be handed. Not just with an idler gear, the whole engine rotated in the opposite direction.

Having it tried with the Peregrine, Rolls-Royce concluded it was a b***** stupid idea and never did it again.
