  1. Because of the weight, first: these engines were heavier. It would have required an extensive redesign of the wings to accommodate them. And more power for what? Heavier loads? It would have required an enlarge fuselage and new larger wings. A new aircraft, in short. And the speed would have been only marginally better, at the expense of a higher consumption. The Lincoln was an improved Lancaster, not a new design, unlike the B-29. There was only so much that could be done with the Manchester airframe.
