There's two reasons to do a cross-brand engine swap: because you're cheap, or because you're filled with spite. I am, of course, both. For years, forum people have become enraged from literally any prospect of putting a Dodge motor in a Chevy, or vice versa. Such an act is sacrilege. It taints the noble purity of the Chevrolet race, and its meticulous assembly by a group of guys who were high as hell on synthetic drugs and kept forgetting which way to bolt the windshield on. I really like making those folks, in particular, very mad.

To leverage my disgusting amounts of knowledge about everything automotive in the pursuit of "those things probably shouldn't go together" is basically the pinnacle of excitement. Why not jam a Rolls-Royce geared high-bypass turbofan from a 747 into a Jaguar XJ6? Does it even fit? How long can you run it for before it snaps your tack-welded motor mounts off the frame and starts flying down the expressway, clobbering Bronco Sports and blasting tollbooths into a fine mist of wood powder?

Of course, as with everything else in my life, I have to be pragmatic. What really drives me to do these swaps is the fact that I have a large collection of motors lying around, and I don't care too much what it says on the valve cover before underhand-lobbing it into the nightmare project that I need to drive to work tomorrow. Making people mad is just a bonus, even if it is a really good one. Soviet diesel engine it is. I'll run it on kerosene, that'll really show Diesel Ivan at the gas station.

Does the average person care, though? Does it impress them? No. I stopped explaining myself to them years ago. They don't think it's weird at all that a Plymouth could hold a Ford engine. In fact, they are surprised that it was ever the opposite case. They're just engines, right? Plymouth got them from the engine store, same as Ford.

In fact, the more we talk about this competition-of-swaps, the stranger it seems to my rational side that I have embarked upon a campaign of harassing the very same folks who could empathize with my odd hobby the most. Just don't ask a professional to psychoanalyze me. Those folks get real competitive when they find a weird thinkin' problem, too, and then I have to crawl out of my therapist's office while they exchange gunfire before I can get to my car and escape. Good reason to swap in a faster engine, come to think of it.

1964 Mistral Spyder

Diana Dors bought the brand new Mistral Spyder in 1964 when she saw it at Earls Court Motorshow while in the throes of bankruptcy.

In 1964, the Maserati range was at its most diverse, with the Mistral and Quattroporte joining the Sebring, 3500 GT, and 3500 GT Spyder. Maserati was building upon the success of the 3500 GT and Sebring when it commissioned Pietro Frua to design a new body to be placed upon an updated Tipo 109 chassis. The new two-seat coupé was named “Mistral”, after the strong winds blowing from the Mediterranean coast in the south of France, at the suggestion of Colonel John Simone, the French Maserati importer. The Mistral was sold directly from the Motor Show stand to its first owner, Diana Dors, the English screen icon frequently known as the “English Marilyn Monroe”. She is said to have fallen in love with the car after seeing it first-hand at the motor show. Dors, one of the earliest English stars to court the press, and gain notoriety in the process, was famously the youngest person to own a Rolls-Royce, despite the fact that she was not even old enough to drive at the time

With a 3.7-litre engine developing 255bhp, the Italian sports car was capable of 0-60mph in just 6.2 seconds with a top speed of 160mph.

Bentley Camargue, 1985, by Pininfarina. Dating from a time when Bentley was a subsidiary of Rolls-Royce. For much of the time the two companies were tied together Bentleys were simply badge-engineered versions of Rolls-Royce models. The Camargue, designed by Paolo Martin at Pininfarina, was an exception, only being marketed as a Rolls-Royce. The factory built one Bentley-badged Camargue prototype in 1977 but the fate of that car is unknown. Then is 1985, near the end of the Camargue's model life, the factory made this one-off, it's serial number reveals the car was a Bentley from the moment it was built, rather than a "conversion." Decoding SCBYJ000XFCH10150 relays the following information: SC = Manufacturer Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Limited, Bentley Motors (1931) Limited B = Branding Bentley YJ = Model Camargue 00 = Engine Type 6.75 Litre V8, naturally aspirated, non-catalyst exhaust system 0 = Restraint Type other than USA prior to 1987 X = Checksum Digit F = Year 1985 C = Factory Location Crewe H = Steering Location Home market, Right hand drive 10150 = Chassis Serial Number

Ok so this post is about the starting crank handle, I completely forgot while I was visiting Jeremy to demonstrate where and how it's used for you all, as it's a common question I get asked, but fortunately I remembered later in the day while visiting my aunt and uncle with a very similar vehicle (Rolls Royce Silver Wraith, only a few years apart in age from Mary). So instead, I used her to demonstrate. While the Wraith's starting handle is a slightly different design to Mary's (a bit longer) the procedure and positioning is identical.

First, rotate the little chromed disk that sits under the central headlamp (if fitted), and lift the little flap at the bottom of the radiator. Next, insert the crank handle through both. Then give it a vigorous turn, keeping your thumb away from the top (poor form demonstrated here - that's asking for a dislocated thumb, oops!). It usually only takes half a turn to catch, so in the Wraith's instance, it doesn't really matter that the bumper is in the way. (She has a different front bumper to some, with a special sprung design for extra impact safety). Ideally she could probably use a slightly longer starting handle. Neither car NEEDS this to start however, as both have electric push-button starter. It would only be if your starter motor failed that you'd need to hand crank, but most of these will never get used. I even had one in my old 1969 series IIA Land Rover, but mine was a couple of feet long and held in clips behind the driver's seat against the bulkhead. Never used it, but it was a nice long heavy bit of metal to have around in case you ever felt threatened ;) (Or in case you ever need to kick start a universe of course). Hope this helps!
