    I wonder how much Luigi charges to let strangers stand around and watch him work?

    Never seend one of these. I'm assuming those things in the middle are the intake manifold. The question is why so tall?

    @fabriciom: Answered above, but yes that is the intake manifold and intake runners. Why? Italian machismo.

    Little known fact - The best way to reinsert the cams in one of these is using gear-head spunk as assembly lube. The problem is, of course, not acquiring it: the issue lies in the classic faux pas of using FAR too much of it during reconstruction.


    I really like this "series" - keep it coming!!!

    With those kind of revs, I assume it's a flat-plane crank? Or maybe not, since it's a 90* block?

    I had no idea that the intake runners on the 360 were so long, but I guess I should have expected it due to the high-RPM nature of the engine.


    And those intake plenums are awful sexy too.

    I'm biased, but I still think Yamaha's 3.0 and 3.2 SHO engines had the sexiest intake manifold. No, it doesn't have the cache of a Ferrari, but the old bundle of snakes was still a site to behold.


    I'd still like to go back and buy one to mount on the wall or make a glasstop coffee table out of.

    I'm sure Buck Nasty and the other Playa Haters will jump on me for saying this, but the 360 Modena Challenge Stradale is one of my all-time favorite Ferraris.
