How much commonality is there between the RR Tyne engine and propeller on the Guppy and those on the Belfast? The both have the same power output but have a different model designation. Is it just the mounting arrangements that are different or are there other differences?
As far as I can recall, the auxiliaries on one are electrically driven and hydraulically driven on t'other though I am damned if I can remember which is which, they are not interchangeable. I am sure one of our more erudite Tyne artisans will clarify in much greater detail soon,I hope.
Hope it helps
Be lucky
