Thanks Pete. Wasn’t sure on that one, but was I right about the intercooler?

Afraid not!
The two-stage intercooled Merlin is a Rolls-Royce design. Even the magnetos on this one look the same as the British BTH C6SE, but in reality are probably the US-built version. The only thing that is clearly Packard is the oil filter.
