Ferrari Testarossa Engine - super detailed 1/8

[Ferrarifan]

In addition to the Ferrari Testarossa I also built a super detailed model of the Testarossa engine in 1:8. 
The model is also based on the kit from Pocher which was released nearly 30 years ago. I improved it using a transkit from Transkit Modelcar which I upgraded by a lot of scratch built parts.
I used the technical documentation of Ferrari and hundreds of pics from web to make the engine as real as possible.
The model can be disassembled partially to a view to all the details.
Hope you like the built.

Fully assembled engine:

 

As written above many parts can be disassembled to get a view to all the details below.

 

 

 

Here how I made the pics. I used a IPhone 14 Pro. 

 

Best regards

Your Ferrarifan

Very cool.  I really like the hanging wiring harnesses.

Totally awesome build!!

Another fantastic piece from you? Man it looks like real one! Perfect Job?

An incredibly realistic model engine build. Not only for the added details, but all the subtle nuances in the paint job that really bring the model to life. Considering that it was the old Pocher engine kit used as a basis this model is outstanding !

Amazing realism!  You are a very fastidious modeler. It looks exactly like a 1:1 engine!

[Mattilacken]

Great model! Looks epic and if i hadent seen the last pic and knew it was a model I could hav been fooled that it was a 1:1!
