Ferrari Mailing List: Re: License Plates

Grahame ask "Wasn't the TAG Formula 1 team powered by Porsche motors? "

Well, Porsche designed motors, ayep.  I have one.  TTE P1-22.  It was one of 
Prost's motors.  It has two wins on it - both at Imola.  One of those races 
he was DQ'd for being 2 kilos light.  About 3 liters of fuel.  That would be 
tough to say well that's racing.

1500cc, twin turbo V-6 and about 1100 hp at about 12,000 rpm.   Very special 
piston technology at the time.  About the same diameter piston as a 912 and 
about half the stroke.  If you want any pictures, ask me for them off line. 
After I got it a fellow from the factory contacted me and sent me a bunch of 
stuff. VERY interesting.

Sure like to get a similar Ferrari F1 engine - especially the one that used 
Comprex supercharging system.  They tried it at Long Beach (84?) but didn't 
race it.

Onward

DOUG I also have a petty understanding wife who lets me keep it in the 
family room.  heh heh
