Timeline

1967 marked a significant year for Ferrari with the introduction of the 330 P4, a mid-engined V12 endurance car designed to succeed the 330 P3. Only four cars with the P4 engine were made: three new 330 P4s and one converted P3 chassis (0846). The P4 featured a three-valve cylinder head, similar to those in Ferrari's Formula One cars, and adopted the P3's fuel injection system, producing up to 450 hp. The P4 continued Ferrari's racing legacy, winning the 1000 km Monza in 1967, a year after the P3's victory there. A notable moment for the P4 was at the 1967 24 Hours of Daytona, where two P4s and a 412 P achieved a 1-2-3 photo finish, a direct response to Ford's similar triumph with the GT40 Mk.II at the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans.
