Ferrari BB512LM

308 GTB 3.5L Engine On Dyno
We built this engine from an actual 512 BBLM core engine. Considerable time was spent doing engine simulation work and special designing to come up with a solid modification package for the BBLM engine. Cylinder head porting, camshaft profile, piston design and special exhaust headers were all a part of the success of this championship-winning engine. The internals were extensively lightened with titanium valves, retainers, connecting rods, aluminum flywheel and racing clutch. For comparison the factory quoted 480 HP at 7200 rpm.
