About the Ferrari 308 2.9 V8 Carb (255 Hp) RWD
The carbureted 308 GTB — four Weber downdraft carburetors feeding a 2.9-liter quad-cam V8 that screams to 7,700 RPM. 255 hp in a car weighing 1,255 kg. The earliest vetroresina (fiberglass) bodies saved further weight. This is the 308 in its most raw, most mechanical, most rewarding form. No electronic fuel injection to smooth things out. Just carburetors, camshafts, and a V8 that sings.
