Re: engine design philosophy question

Was this even a nationality thing? I was given to understand that the RR Merlin had right-hand drive, while the RR Griffon had left-hand drive. I have read that this was a bit of a shock to those who converted from the Merlin Spitfire to the Griffon Spitfire without being told about this difference.
