Ferrari Dino Engine - V12

V12

The V12 variant of the Dino V6 debuted in the 1992 456 as the Tipo F116B. It is a 65° engine with an 88 mm bore and the same 75 mm stroke as the Dino V8 found in the 348. Total displacement is 5.5 L (5474 cc) for 436 hp (325 kW). A later Tipo F116C version replaced the B in 1998 and lasted through 2002.

The same displacement produced 485 hp (362 kW) in the 1996 550 Maranello's Tipo F133A (later the Tipo F133C). The 5.5 L V12 engine won the "over 4 liter" class of the International Engine of the Year award for 2000 and 2001.

The F50 sports car bowed in 1995 with another Dino V12, based on the 1990 3.5 L Formula One engine. With an 85 mm bore and 69 mm stroke, it mimicked the high-revving oversquare dimensions of the F40's V8, but with 4.7 L, it didn't need a turbo to produce 520 hp (388 kW). Variable length intake manifolds were used, as was 5-valve technology.

The 2002 575 M has a 5748 cc version of the Dino V12 known as the Tipo F133E. Bore was up to 89 mm and stroke matched the F355 V8 at 77 mm. Output was 515 hp (384 kW) for the 575M, raised to 533 hp (412 kW) for the Tipo F133F used in the 2004 612 Scaglietti

The Dino-based V12 family was replaced by an all-new V12 engine based on the shared Ferrari/Maserati V8. This new generation of V12 was introduced for the 2003 Enzo.
