A much improved P300 was introduced in 1974, this new 3-Liter model would make a difference, the engine was enlarged and featured dual overhead camshafts with a much more reliable chain drive, the heads now incorporated the combustion chambers which placed this brand new V8 ahead of its V12 cousin in terms of specifications, we…
When you talk about the Lamborghini Urraco with supercar fans, chances are they only think about the P250 model, this 2.5 liter V8 model happened to be the first step away from the massive V12 engines we all know from Lamborghini. Some might even remember the updated Urraco P300, boasting an enlarged engine and chain…
The idea of a multi-purpose Lamborghini was taken one step further with the enormous LM-004. The car was built around the same chassis as the LMA-002, but went much further, the engine wasn’t the ‘normal’ 4754 cc unit (factory designation number L 503), but an all new 7.0-Litre one.
