Default Interchange Guide available?

Since so many of the various Bristols' mechanical parts come from other makes, I'm wondering if anyone has put together a reference guide. I've not been able to find one on this forum.

There are lots of disparate discussions, but I've never seen all the information pulled together. It is something we could/should do. Just need to come up with the best way to capture all the information so that everyone can contribute.

However, once we get past the Chrysler engine and transmission (for the V8 cars at least) the list of parts that actually come "from" another car manufacturer may be quite limited.

More parts may be "common" with other makes, but actually come from a third party manufacturer, such as Dunlop, Girling, Smiths etc
