by The Ferrari 246 GTS Dino has long been a coveted collectible model, with a price tag that can reach $300-500 thousand. Typically, such models are not tuned, but collector David Lee took on the task of modifying the car.
The Ferrari Dino sports car is not very fast by modern standards. Its 2.4-liter 195-horsepower V6 engine accelerates to a hundred in 7.5 seconds and can reach 245 km/h. Therefore, David decided to swap the Ferrari engine.
The engine chosen is very bright – a V8 from the Ferrari F40. However, the turbochargers had to be removed as they couldn’t fit under the hood, but the volume of the V8 was increased from 2.9 to 3.6 liters. The power exceeds 500 hp.
Of course, the specifications have been significantly improved, so the suspension had to be rebuilt and modern Brembo brakes installed. At the same time, the Ferrari Dino hasn’t changed externally and can only be recognized by its new 17-inch wheels.
By the way, did you know that one of the Ferrari 246 GTS Dino was once buried in the ground?
