I'm not asking you to do my work: I need only a clue about a website or a book. Thanks!
No problems: a reasonable starting point can be found on this site:
http://www.spitfireart.com/merlin_engines.html

Some valuable articles can be downloaded from Flight Global:
eg: http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchi...42 - 0449.html
http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchi...42 - 2609.html
or
http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchi...0-%200164.html

or for the Griffon

You can download a Merlin 61 Maintenance Manual Here (via DepositFiles)

One really good source for books is the Rolls-Royce Heritage Trust

Hope this helps.
