    Something I learned a while back was that the 275 GTB 4 cam grille is larger then the
    275 GTB 2 cam. Here is a cardboard cut out from 2 cam grille placed on the 4 cam....

    The 2 cam grille is about 765mm x 145mm

    I think early 275 GTB/4s have the same nose shape and grille cut-out as 275 GTBs. However, I think there's a point where the 275 GTB/4 noses changed and received a bigger grille opening (i.e. starting with Serial No. 10001?).

    Are these later 275 GTB/4 noses also slightly "longer" than their earlier longnose predecessors?

    I think all the 275gtb 4 cams have the larger grille. They also have 2 cooling fans rather then only 1 on the 2 cams.
