Ferrari Sports Cars: Gasoline Engines - History

Ferrari Engines Enthusiasts' Manual : 15 Iconic Ferrari Engines from 1947 to the Present

This lavishly produced book provides a completely unique photographic insight into the design and interior components of 15 landmark Ferrari road-car engines, documenting the 'inside view' of the engines - each one a mechanical work of art.

Ferrari is renowned as an engine builder and 15 of its greatest engines, from the early 1950s Gioacchino Colombo-designed V12, through V6s, both normally aspirated and turbocharged V8s and boxer 12s, to the latest 6.3-litre V12 are documented in detail, with a chapter, and around 20 photographs for each engine.

Coverage includes images of the complete, built engine from various angles, and views of the various castings and significant internal components, before taking a brief look at the car in which the engine is fitted.

Moteurs Ferrari

The author has photographed the successive stages of the restoration of some of the most beautiful Ferraris. It was while photographing their engines disassembled and reassembled that he was struck by their aesthetics and technicality.
The first generation of V12s fitted to the 195 Inter of 1949, then the V6s, then the naturally aspirated and turbocharged V8s and flat 12s, and finally the very latest 6.3-litre V12 fitted to the four-wheel drive FF: all are described in detail and illustrated with photos of the components, the assembled engines and the cars they equip.

Each engine-car pair is associated with a historical and technical reminder, as well as the characteristics of the engine.
This richly illustrated book offers us a unique insight into the style and technique of fifteen emblematic engines in the history of Ferrari road cars. It allows us to discover the interior of these engines, each of which is a work of mechanical art.

Ferrari-Motoren - 15 Triebwerks-Ikonen von 1947 bis heute

This lavishly produced book provides unique insights into the design and construction of 15 selected Ferrari engines and documents the inner workings of these mechanical works of art.
This beautiful illustrated book begins with a first-generation V12 from the Ferrari 195 Inter of 1949, followed by other V12 engines, the V6 and the V8 naturally aspirated and turbocharged engines.
The 180° V engines, often incorrectly referred to as boxer engines, are also presented, as is the current 6.3-liter V12 of the all-wheel drive Ferrari FF.

Journalist and photographer Francesco Reggiani had the unique opportunity to be a bystander during the overhaul of various engines, to look over the shoulders of the specialists and to photograph and document the work on some of the most beautiful Ferrari models. When working with the disassembled and reassembled engines, he was always amazed by the aesthetic appeal of these engines, which are the heart and soul of these fascinating vehicles.
These masterpieces from Maranello not only power the greatest and fastest cars of all time - they are technical works of art.

See in detail:
- V12 engines:, Inter 195 340 America, 250 GT California, 250 LM, 275 GTB, 330 GTS, 456 GT M, FF

- V8 engines:, 308 GTB, 208 Turbo, 288 GTO, 360 Modena

Parallel to the technical discussions about the engines, their development history and the most important technical data, the vehicles in which these engines were installed are also described. The reader thus experiences the most important technical milestones and formative developments at Ferrari as if on a journey through time.
