Ferrari introduced its new front engined GT car at the Paris salon in October 1968. The car was larger, heavier, and was intended to be the ultimate front engined tourer. The new car was quickly nicknamed the Daytona to celebrate the 1-2-3 victory of the 330 P3/4s at the 1967 Daytona 24-hour race and the subsequent manufacturer’s championship. Ferrari had avoided a sale to Ford but had completed the sale of 90% of the company to Fiat. In the U.S. the E.P.A and D.O.T. were implementing a whole slew of new pollution and safety regulations as were most of the governments in the major European markets. This was a very tumuluous time for Ferrari as the Fiat staff moved into the managerial positions in Maranello. The volume and speed of the component and specification changes were staggering and have created a real challenge for the restorers today.

Add to cartWeber carburetors were made in Bologna and were used on “all” of the Ferraris from the 815 and 125s through until the 512BBs. There are photos of T.R. #0666 and the four cam 290/315/335s with Solex carburetors but Webers were the norm. The really early carburetors had beautiful little cast brass tags, but Weber soon switched to the more conventional aluminum tags with the black overlay. These tags were attached to the carburetors with small u-drive rivets. Tipo (D) 25×46.4mm, hole spacing is 20×40.5mm, Weber scripit is 6mm high
