I don’t think many were made. I seem to remember one being discussed on F’Chat. There was that one car – I forget who owned it – he was trying to put four valve Testarossa heads onto a 400 or 412 block, but I think the project got abandoned?...

 

There’s these:

I don’t think this is a financially affordable project anymore. Both a donor 308 and especially a 2 cam vintage V-12 are approaching six figures to start with EACH, not including all of the specialized machining needed to make it all work (add more cha-ching $$$).

That Goldsmith setup was very cool.

 

Have any of them ever turned up for sale?

Indeed.

 

But it goes to show you how you can backdate a modern powertrain into the old chassis and it’s literally a bolt-in fit.

 

Remember the David Goldsmith 308 V-12 conversions? I’ve got the manual. Yeah, lots of custom machining and welding but the whole works still fits in that engine bay.
