I am sorry but you are totally wrong. The first version of the engine, the one that won the DTM in 1993, was a V6 60° that had nothing to do with France PRV 90 degrees V6. And the second version used the design conception of the PRV engine, it means the angle of the V and the "interasso" of the cilinders. The manufacture was totally italian. So first inform yourself before putting such sensationalistic title to your video.

@Selmerpilot 2 месяца назад

All correct sir. We must give credit to Guilio Alfieri of Maserati for the first to build a 4v 90 degree v6 for racing though. Alfieri’s creation was raced by Ligier at Lemans in 74 placing 8th overall. Made some 400hp at 11k rpm from 3L. Engine was based on the Citroen SM/ Merak block but with 4v heads

Sorry Man, but the 1996 Alfa Engine was not French. In the same interview you say, Sergio Limone says that the technical aspects to respect for the new regulamentation were the angle of the V for V6 engine and the the distance from the centers of the cylindres. So, on the documents were released the Montreal V6, but it has too short distances between cylindres, and thanks to a society in the last years of the 80s, Lancia and Alfa were the same Brand, and the PRV equipped the Lancia Thema 6V and the Lancia Thema Limousine, so it was addicted to have the technician values to can be used as shield... the V6 1996 Alfa engine was in experimentation from 1994, and Nannini tested it after the initial develop of Giorgio Francia...

Dear friend, this is incorrect, in the video by Cironi that you are using, LIMONE clarify that the engine only shares the V angle with the PVR and nothing else, moreover, FIAT was going to abandon the DTM so they didn't want ANY new engine development, LIMONE and his team basically went rogue and launched this new engine. Again this is not a PRV, this is a brand new engine made by Pino Aprile that shares the V angle with the PRV.

Wait wait wait.... Sergio Limone in the Davide Cironi's video tells another story. They were in struggle finding an engine in Alfa Romeo's history with the needed dimensions, the rules needed only that, so V angle and the bore spacing to allow the right bore diameter to reach high rpm. Since they were and are in the FIAT galaxy, they had the option of using the PRV dimensions, since FIAT was part of the PSA joint venture. But that's NOT A FRENCH ENGINE. It has only the V angle and bore spacing of the PRV, just for rules needs, but it was completely engineered by Alfa Corse. Don't spread wrong claims, please.

From Wikipedia about the engine: The PRV was also the basis for the 90° V6 engine used by Alfa Romeo in the 155 V6 Ti in the 1996 DTM/ITC season from Silverstone onwards.The engines in that series required the use of bank separation angle and cylinder bore spacing from a production based engine, and as a 90° V6 has greater room between banks than a 60° V6 for a more optimal induction system, Alfa Romeo used the PRV as a basis as it had been used in the Lancia Thema, a car which shared its platform with the Alfa Romeo 164, as well as the Fiat Croma and Saab 9000. Other sources declare that the 90° V6 engine in 1996 Alfa Romeo 155 V6 Ti is based on a 2.6 L V8 from 1970 Alfa Romeo Montreal with two cylinders removed, as allowed by the rules, however the FIA homologation documentation shows the homologated production engine was a "2850cm³" capacity "V6" engine. The bore spacing of the Montreal engine was too close to be suitable for the 155 V6 Ti in any case. Limone invented the "Montreal V8" story to throw the press off the scent and to satisfy FIAT management who were unhappy that a non-FIAT group developed engine was being used.

C'est totalement inutile de montrer la voiture de série car le modèle de course n'a plus rien à voir avec la voiture de série. Autant se dire la vérité

French Engine....Just study more please

Please, watch the whole video first and don't just a book simply by looking at its cover. It is a title. It has to be catchy.

So Alfa won DTM in 93 with the enhanced Busso engine

It isn’t based on French engine, only 2 measures in a 1000 are the same bro 😂 and different alloys.. it’s another engine. This video and you disrespect all Italian engineers who created this engine. It’s good video, too bad for that part. That disinformation is really unacceptable 🧐

Only the later evolutions used that new V6, the 93 one had a narrow angle v6

French engine my a**, that’s a stupid click bite. This engine was designed by Giuseppe Busso and Italian engineer which in an interview said “… we tested some of our ideas on an experimental 4 cylinder, that ran at a Bosch experimental centre located in Paris….” , is this what makes this your engine, “French” ?

@VisioRacer 8 месяцев назад

Yes, it is clickbait. Try catching a viewer in 2023. Everybody does that because it is necessary. Don't judge the video by the title, watch the whole story, please. FYI - the 90° engine is not designed by Busso, it is the PRV engine... just see the video. Much appreciated, man

It's kinda ironic that one of the most loathed production car V6 engine is also one of the most successful in racing competition... and also the engine of one of the most iconic movie car (DeLorean DMC-12).
