Hi Stuart

Im not aware of any detailed drawings, but the Rolls-designed Peregrine nacelle for the F9/37 was tunnel tested in 1938 in the full size tunnel at Farnborough. The report survives in the NA (ref. DSIR 23/6911) and I seem to recall it contained a GA drawing of the nacelle, but nothing on the engine installation (since I’d assume there was no engine actually installed).
