1979 Ferrari 308 factory performance upgrade car

Today i bought a 1979 ferrari 308 factory tuned, the buyer of the car was gonna race with the car in 1979 in something called group4, so the car was factory made for this, with sport suspension 16inc wheel,4 race exhaust, the engine was tuned to 300hp, the car is in mint condition and only have 42,000km on it, im so happy with this buy, the engine doesn't sound like a normal 308, very mean sound and revs 8300rpm..=)
anyone have some info on this group 4 factory tune?

Doger.

 

I haven't got the car home yet, but as soon as it gets home, VIN and photon will arrive, the man ho ordered the car in 1979 needed to wait 8 month more then was stated, so he missed the racing season, the year after he didn't do any racing for some reason, so the car was sitting in a garage and he sold it in 1982, and the new owner had the car to 2022, 40 years.

 

i only have this photos for now, better high resolution photos later, the paint is very good original paint.

Here comes the VIn code, F106AB27193 how can i check this?

 

No it has not the GRP4 accessories, but for what i can understand the engine was, will be fun to sort this out..
im gonna try to find the thread

 

this is probably the engine upgrade:

Sprint pack» including P6 cams, 42 DCNF Weber carburetors, Borgo HC pistons, matt black cam cover, four exhaust pipes, stamped Ferrari. - 16" Speedline wheels fitted with Pirelli P7.

i have never see or heard a 308 to have this upgrade?, it seams like it is rare, anyone have this upgrade?, the seller told me that he has paiper from factory claiming 300hp, the value of the car should climbe?

 

i can assure you it is original paint, same owner for 40 years, the black is there, but the angle hide it, i have photos, but the are corrupted, cant open them, frustrating.

 

yes i did see this also, ferrari started VIN 1980 if i have understand this correctly.

 

i have made some digging, and this is the result, but of course not 100% sure, i have contacted ferrari in italy to have the correct numbers, but until then, 1978 it was only 4 cars and 1979 6 cars that took full "Sprint pack" including P6 cams, 42 DCNF Weber carburetors, Borgo HC pistons, matt black cam cover, four exhaust pipes, stamped Ferrari. - 16" Speedline wheels fitted with Pirelli P7.
so they are rare indeed, they sell one here, 243,000US!!, it is starting to be crazy prices!

The seller send me some photos of document, he didn't have the document where it says what is in the engine, but i paper on italian that says that it is speciale camshaft and speciale pistons, how often you need to adjust valves because of this and to use champion 60NY plugs and so on, i will try to get information on what my chassis number say, ferrari probably have this information., 11 digit VIN means it was build in Maranello plant, that i now now, small progress..

 

On Autosport October 25 1979 it was a road test of this "sprintpack", if someone is interested i can take some photos of the article and post it here, when i get all the documents. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
