Otto cycle 4-intake-stroke engine, 12 V cylinders at 60°, 4-valve timing system for each cylinder, double chain-
controlled double overhead camshaft, intake and exhaust phase transformers, indirect MPI injection (one injector
per cylinder), static electronic ignition (one coil per cylinder), variable length duct and throttle bodies controlled
by its control units, liquid cooling system with double radiator, dry pan lubrication with double pump controlled by
independent chain and oil radiator, gas emissions recycling system, six in two in one exhaust system with catalyst and exhaust noise control system.
Aluminium alloy and H+T silicon “open deck” type crankcase with wet inserted liners.
The cylinder heads are aluminium alloy and H+T silicon, with bronze valve guides and cast iron valve seats.
Cr Mo H+T steel crankshaft, working surfaces are hardened by gaseous nitriding. The main bearings are smooth.
The main bearing caps are integrated in a block structure to give maximum stiffness.

The timing system consists of two overhead camshafts for each cylinder bank, controlled by double chains with
phase transformer on intake and exhaust shafts. Motion is transmitted directly from the crankshaft to two gear
wheels by means of a double chain. Each of these gear wheels in its turn controls the two camshafts of each head by means of double chains. The chain tension is ensured by hydraulic chain tighteners that operate with the lubrication circuit oil.
