Wasnt there only one kind of allison engine i.e. the inline engine, or are
you talking about the one in the C130 hercules?!


Allison was the name of an engine manufacturer that made a
wide range of engines. IRC its now a subsidiary of RollsRoyce


There is an Allison transmission division of GM that still makes
[very good I understand] truck transmissions.

Is this a different Allison than the WWII engine maker?
