There was a guy....on Ferrari chat with some amazing machinist and tig welding skills, and allot of energy. He decided to make his own 12 cylinder engine. He had a machine shop in his basement. The thread ran for years. It blew up.
So I think it is cool you are attempting this, and wish you the best of luck! You may want to try and source every existing part that would fit and design around them. Me, I would just drop an LS engine in there. But I seriously get where you are coming from! Here is the thread. It's 101 pages long. It will suck you in! And, there is no ending because some nastiness occurred and the admins shut it down. http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/308-328/1...ion-begins.html |

Yeah. A few years ago Hemming's Exotic Cars did a cover story on the 308GT4 as an economical way to get some Stallions. (edit:05/07/16)"A few years ago"19 actually. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) http://www.ebay.com/itm/November-1997-Euro...x8AAOxyVaBS1IHX Bertone did a great job of integrating 4 seats and mid design transversely.The marketing department not so good. Like the 914 the GT4 was shunned by the illuminati.Paul Frere did a R+T road test in Upper Michigan in '74 and loved the car. Now stuffing a 400i V12 longitudinally and a modern 6-7 spd tapshift would wake it up. The objective being to maintain the brand of the prancing horse.Add the turbos and water+nitromethane injection ..How fast?220MPH+ fer sure. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uu8qo93N1wM How to re+re your F-V12.
