Ferrari Mailing List: Re: V12 308 - Recipe for Smoked Testarossa?

[Rick Moseley (ramosel]

Years ago the guy that was doing one of these conversions got booted off of ferrarichat because he hurt somebody’s “feelings”. Mike?    I know he was on ferrarilife after that but did he ever finish that project?

I have a copy of that 308 V12 conversion manual.

 

It was feasible back then as the donor V-12 engines were “reasonably” priced. Now though, it wouldn’t make sense. There was a Daytona V-12 engine for sale on Hemmings a few months ago – used as a display piece, so who knows why it was taken out of a car – and they were asking  $110K...

 

Although, it’s a great reference for the process and could be adapted using a modern 12 (like from a 456 or 550).

The hot rod BB reminded me of this car.

I hadn’t read the article in years...

400hp and they kept the weight down to 3140 lbs.
