Lamborghini v12 bizzarini

[Bougsie]

Hi guys,

I’m in the middle of building a scale Riva Aquarama river boat which originally had two Lamborghini v12’s fitted. I want to build some scale engines but cannot find any drawings anywhere to even get me started.

Does anyone have or know of any engine drawings for these early engines. The first engines where first fitted in 1969 I think.

Cheers in advance

PS keep up the good work. I love following and reading all your threads

Scale engine drawings might be tough to source but let us know f you land on anything.
Here are plans for a (methanol/glow) V12.

I think it will not be possible to get a copy of that plans. Another issue (supposing you are able to find them) would be the task of escalating the design to acomodate it in your Riva.
The work involved in such a task would be so big that I think it would be better to design an v12 from scratch.

A good starting point to deign a good looking V engine is the Schilling´s V8 design. It´s not so uncommon to find pictures on the Internet with these mounted on model boats and it looks great. There is a guy called Rolf Luther that produces and sells beautiful engines based on the Schilling´s design, look for "Luther v8" on google and you´ll see some fine examples of it.

If you are willing to walk your own design road, I can collaborate with you for making the design and the final plans (It´s more than just adding 2 cylinders to an existing design).

Hello. I am really tossing the idea of replacing my Murci with Ferrari 458. I completely get the V12 > V8 shift but for me this is basically sunday cruiser. Anyone else made the switch & any regretted it?
