Bristol Jupiter drawings

I am not sure if this is the proper place to ask, but… here I go.

Can anyone help with providing drawings of the Bristol Jupiter radial engine?

It’s needed for some profiling work.

Thanks in advance!

There is a slightly different profile drawing of the Jupiter to the Flight one of Nov 1928 in Wingspan March 1992 p15. It shows a side view of the crankcase and a single cylinder as well as a master and slave-conrod schematic and a part sectioned view of a piston.

That Motorlexikon drawing looks like a copy of the Jupiter drawing in the Flight archive 8 Nov 1928. Go to the archive for 1928 where you will find a group of articles discussing the Jupiter.

Have you tried the Bristol branch of RRHT?
