No thinking about it, that's a Meteor, not sure of the difference.

the merlin is supercharged were as the meteor was naturally aspirated.
the merlins could produce well over 2000bhp back in the day. they had overhead cams, 2 plugs per cylinder and 4 valves per cylinder too not bad for an engine designed in the 40's!!
