1950 Rolls-Royce B80 Mk 6 5,675 cc Engine Overhauled Bentley Army SOLD

Rolls-Royce B80 Mk 6 DL 5, 675 cc Engine Overhauled Motor Bentley Special Military Army Alvis Marine

This Genuine Overhauled Rolls-Royce B80 Mk 6 DL Straight Eight 5. 675 litre Petrol engine has been refurbished by Aviation Jersey Limited who are still in business today. It would be ideal to install it in a Bentley Special, especially a Mk VI Special or a WO Vintage Bentley replica as a standard Mark 6 Gearbox would be easy to install. It is also similar to the Phantom IV engine that Rolls-Royce used in period that were mainly purchased by Heads of State including the Queen. Many Military vehicles of the period were supplied with this engine with this Mark mainly being used in Alvis products such as the Saracen and Salamander.

8 Cylinder, Dry Sump, could be converted to wet. Rated at 160 bhp at 3, 750 rpm. 3. 5” Bore, 4. 5” Stroke. Iron Head and Block, 6. 4:1 Compression, will run on a minimum of 80 RON. Due to the low compression ratio and hardened valve seats, the B range of engines are suitable for use with unleaded fuel without modification.

These engines were designed to produce relatively high power outputs (for the time), while being extremely reliable and running on low grade "pool" petrol. They were designed to be simple to maintain, with washable oil and fuel filters, mechanical fuel pumps and could all be started via a hand crank.

Engine Number – 21663, mounted on a wheeled stand.

These are very rare refurbished to this standard in complete and useable condition, a useful and superb addition to your motor car, military vehicle, marine use or project. Photograph 6 shows a B80 installed in a Bentley Special.

This engine and stand is heavy so collection via Van or Trailer would be preferred, we can assist with this and could maybe put it on a pallet, we could also possibly deliver this item for an additional charge. We will accept cash on collection or bank transfer for this item.

Can be viewed near Stamford in Lincolnshire by prior appointment.

Price £9, 750 o. n. o.
