Mark;
I believe the Merlins also had the water injection. I know they had a limit on the throttles that when broken the in emergancy the engine had to be overhauled.
Did you know that the NA P-51 was commissioned for the British and the first 500 were shipped there. The engines, Allisons I believe were not up to the preformance standards and the Spitts could run rings around them. The Britts took the engines out and tossed then in the scrap and reengined them with the Merlins. Later version came with the Packards Merlins.
Mark you are correct the F8F and F4U had the r-2800 18 cylinder 2 bank. I thought they had the larger 27 cylinder 3 banked like the B-29 of the Martin Mars.
Incidently F-8 was the designation to the AAF Mosquitos during the war.

I thonk you are correct the later versions of the f4U had the R-3XXX. I can not find any info on it yet. I recall the 3000 HP figure and the 490 MPH (in a dive).
