(Lamborghini 350 GT) Redesigning the GTV Prototype
As equipped to the 350 GTV, the Bizzarrini-designed 3.5 liter V12 was essentially a race motor, potentially developing 400 horsepower (300 kW) at 11,000rpm. In order to fit his grand touring car with a smoother, more pleasant, longer-lasting engine that would be “good for 40,000 hard miles between services,” Ferruccio had Dallara and Wallace de-tune a version of this prototype GTV motor for street use. This included:
Replacing the elaborate and costly racing-style dry sump oiling system with a conventional wet sump system
Reducing the compression ratio from 11.0:1 or above to 9.4:1
Cutting back on the exotic materials specified for the crankshaft and other components to reduce cost
Relocating the distributors to more accessible positions on the fronts of the exhaust camshafts
Adoption of a single, very tall Lamborghini-made oil filter
Replacing the expensive 36 mm vertical racing Weber carburetors with conventional side-draft 40 DCOE Webers
Softening the cam profiles for smoother running during street driving
This first “detuned” L350 engine was tested on October 3, 1963. The result?later fit in the 350 GT?was a very capable 270 bhp power plant that could reach 254 kilometres per hour (158 mph) in top form. aventador lamborghini, supercar wallpaper, lamborghini veneno wallpapers, Lamborghini 350 GT wallpapers, lambo car
(Lamborghini Aventador)The S received four wheel steering, permanent four wheel drive and a slightly updated suspension. The suspension is controlled by the ?Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Attiva? (LDVA) control unit. The LDVA has four selectable modes ? Sport, Strada (Street), Corsa (Track) and Ego (i.e. individual). Carbon ceramic brakes are standard (front: 400 mm, rear: 380 mm). The nose was redesigned with a bigger front splitter and two new air ducts in the front bumper. At the rear it has a new black rear diffuser with fins, and three single exit exhausts tips. It has 130 percent more front downforce than the standard Aventador. Lamborghini Aventador wallpapers#LamborghiniVeneno #SportsCars #lamborghini #lamborghini #gallardo
