What Would You Put This Ferrari F40 Engine Into?
It's not often you see a Ferrari F40 engine for sale, by itself, and it got us thinking: What would be the best car to drop this legendary twin-turbo V8 into?
According to the ad on Bring a Trailer, this F40 engine (a Tipo F120D) was assembled in 1992, but never assigned to a chassis. Used as a display piece for most of its life, it now comes complete with tons of upgrades, custom parts, and extra pieces.
If I had the means, I'd probably swap this engine into a Dino 308 GT4. That car's original powertrain never really stood out, so dropping something like this into it would be a massive improvement. A car that small with 471 horsepower seems like it would be incredibly fun to drive.
Now we'd like to know: What car do you think would make a suitable home for this F40 engine? It doesn't have to be another Ferrari like the 308 GT4, either-it could be anything. Let us know in the comments below.
