Should the concept work (which it probably won't because I expect it to melt Tommy's spreadsheet) we may consider manufacturing similar engines in the future

Also, I don't think the index reflects these developments from a little while ago. As the British Grand Prix gets closer, I figured that some clarification would be useful, given that we plan to superglue that monstrosity in the back of a second loaned Cooper for that race.

The main issue I see here is that you're purchasing engines from somewhere else and passing them off as your own design. You'd either have to get the engines off Bentley or O.S.C.A. every time you build a new one, or get them to relinquish the designs to you.

O.S.C.A. explains Spa absence
Defending constructors' champions O.S.C.A. are absent from the second consecutive race following Giulio Cabianca's tragic death at Reims.
"Not travelling to the Dutch Grand Prix was our choice. After Giulio's accident, we all needed some time to move on," Piero Taruffi explains. O.S.C.A.s racing director is no longer wheelchair-bound following his accident at Bremgarten four years ago but still struggles with walking. In the wake of the accident he has turned into one of racing's greatest security advocates.
"After the accident, we went back to the factory thinking about how we could make our cars safer without sacrificing performance. We came up with some solutions, but unfortunately, we suffered a few manufacturing delays so we didn't get the cars ready for Spa. We're very grateful to Scuderia Centro Sud for allowing two of our drivers to compete here."
Asked about O.S.C.A.s future prospects, Taruffi was cautiously optimistic.
"This has been a difficult year for us. We've had a lot of personnel changes, including drivers. But we're still a close third behind B.C.M.A. and Ferrari. We think we have the better car, but they've got the better organization, so we'll have to work on that to get back to the very top. But I'm confident we'll get there. Look at Ferrari, they were a lot worse off not long ago, and now they're fighting for the title."
