    Plus the very first car: 815, based on a couple of FIAT engines joined together ... which was a straight 8.

    Also what about the Formula cars?

    that's true, I didn't do the forumla cars. Anyway, I just thought it would be interesting. It's not all about the 12s...

    It is interesting and so true ... it is about what is fastest, that is all that matters on the track.

    you left out the FIAT Dino 2.0 and 2.4

    Maybe you left them out because Enzo didn't build them but they did have the Enzo inspired motor (actually Dino inspired) and maybe you forgot them :)

    Doesn't the '1965 Dino 206' use the FIAT Dino motor. Remember the 2.0 FIAT Dino motor was all alloy (unlike the 2.4) and came about due to Formula 2 regulations ... ??. Designed by the same men that Ferrari used, but made at FIAT.

    Remember guys that knock the FIAT Dino motors ... Lampredi designed the humble 124 FIAT motor PLUS a few Ferrari engines ;). Also remember Enzo did not design them, whoever worked for him at that time did ... like most employees they moved around a bit ...

    - Jano worked for FIAT, Alfa Romeo, Ferrari and Lancia.
    - Columbo worked for Maserati, Ferrari and technically for Alfa Romeo (as he designed the 158 for Alfa Romeo while working for Enzo Ferrari during the war ... I believe).

    Thus it really is the design specifications we should focus on and who commissioned the engine.

    A couple of notes to the list:

    There were two 625 TRCs, so designated on the data sheets. They used the engines from the 625 LM (engines designated 625/1 and 625/2), as the 625 LMs had been re-engined as two liters prior to sale to privateers. The two 625 TRCs are 0672 and 0680.

    The 1958 196 S has also been referred to as a 206 S. There are three of these cars: 0776, 0778, and 0784 (which had a 2.4 liter engine at one point, and was called a 246 S).

    There's no difference among the 1956/66 206 P, 206 S, and 206 SP. They're all the same car. The engine, which is a Ferrari design farmed out to Fiat in order to get enough made to qualify it as a production motor (for F2, as I recall), had three basic configurations: (1) Four cams/carburetors in the engine "V"; (2) Four cams/fuel injection in the "V"; (3) Four cams/fuel injection between the cams (think Ford Indy V8).

    And then there's the little "Machine Gun" four cylinder, which existed only as a prototype, and the two cylinder, which never went in a car, and....

    I guess they couldn't fit "Ferrari" on the tiny little valve cover . . . .

    Bryan,

    The (tipo) 118 LM is also the 376 on the list, a rarely used designation for the 3.7 liter six cylinder. (The 446 is the tipo 121 LM.)

    huh, I had never consciously done the math to realize that 118 and 121 were motor tipo numbers and not cyl displacements. Just when I thought I knew all of Ferrari's naming conventions for their cars . . .
    thanks, OG!

    All the Scuderia cars and bikes where Enzo cast the blocks etc (surley things like the bimotore count?)

    Don't forget the "tommy gun" ferrarina or the ASA mille/1000gt
