    The extra exhaust pipes are taking part of the flow on a bit longer path. After merging, there is a shift in the pulse timing. Part of the pulse in the straight part is joined by the time shifted pulse. It's making some of the frequencies of the exhaust quieter and some louder. The length and size of the longer tubes make the specific points quieter and louder. It's kind of an intereference that's used in noise canceling headphones, but it also works in a positive way, not just in the negative.

A few years ago I had the privilege of spending an afternoon talking cars with the legendary Ingegnere Fioravanti at his villa, here in the Turin area. I was researching the history of the Lancia Gamma (which he designed) for the book I was writing about it, and the great designer was wonderful company, a true gent!

    The supernumerary exhaust pipes are likely two different Helmholtz resonators designed to operate at two different frequencies (the front chamber is a different size than the rear) to eliminate drone in the exhaust, especially loud and noisy exhaust systems. Cutting edge in it's day, we now use other methods (cheaper and smaller) to eliminate drone in the exhaust.

    Perhaps the reason for the "supernumerary exhaust" is the firing order @ 3.27. That alone suggests to me that some elegant thinking was done to exploit the shock waves in the exhaust to help either scavenging or in cylinder filling where the shock wave is directed back towards the exhaust port/valve to stop fresh mix escaping, usually when there is a more than the usual inlet and exhaust valve/port overlap. This can often be found in the two-stroke engine using expansion chamber exhaust design pioneered by Walter Kaden. It would be fun to dyno-test the output with this exhaust solution against single straight pies for each cylinder...The sound... Thanks. 👍

    Iain, I live my exotic car obsession vicariously through you and this channel. I love to see you bring to life and enjoy the classic exotics that you work on. I absolutely love the early Lamborghinis and Ferraris specifically… with the combination of rawness and elegance that they exhibit. I think the Italian styling of that era is beautiful…especially so when contrasted to today, in a world where all the supercars look basically the same (in my opinion). The individuality of the classics is wonderful to see. I personally think that the Lamborghini Miura is the most beautiful car ever built, and I always love when you do an episode on them. You bring them (the cars) to life in your workshop for the enjoyment and pleasure of all of us who likely will never get to personally experience them. Thank you!

    When I had worked at a classic car shop, I had the privilege to drive a Daytona Spyder that wasnt in Concours condition, but it was a nice car. A driver's car. We had just performed a tune-up, and when I went for a test drive. I instantly fell in love with the car. From how smooth changing gears was to the engine's responsiveness and sewing-machine-like smoothness. When you put your foot down, oh how she went and wanted to keep going too! For this car, the steering did have a little bit of play in it, but nothing that was like driving a truck. I was quite surprised at how light the steering actually was. The previous car I worked on was a Testarossa, and the Daytona took much less effort to drive, including in the parking lot. The suspension was also just splended with how it absorbed the bumps and undulations in the road but you always felt secure, in control of the car. Truly has become one of my most favorite cars. Whenever I do find myself with the money to purchase a Daytona, I will most certainly will without any hesitation

    Ian, I think you should read this - will probably put some more colours in your paint box! "Super Numery Pipes" - so interesting as this Ferrari feature predates computer flow dynamics! (I have worked for a UK company (you will have worked on their sports cars) who have done computer engine performance modeling/development for Bentley, GM, Ford, Triumph MC, Harley Davidson, Rolls Royce, JCB, Daewoo, KIA, etc, etc.) When the exhaust valve(s) open the mass of gas proceeds down the manifold uniformly until a juncture (pipe join), at this point a low pressure shock wave is generated that travels BACK towards towards the exhaust valves (that have now shut). At certain RPM's this low pressure shock wave will reach the exhaust valve(s) when they are open again for the next cycle, and the low pressure wave will scavenge the cylinder of exhaust and draw in a fresh intake charge (as the valves are on overlap) - enabling the cylinder to produce a lot of power. As the "SNP" join is here at the 3 into 1 junction I expect it enhances the effect - but as it never became a standard feature on performance engines, I expect the complexity/cost outweighed the benefit? If you look at a Ford Kent engine in a Formula Ford single seater racing car, you will see a 4 into 1 exhaust which is tuned for one condition i.e. max power - as these drivers need to keep the engine at this condition to win. However the Ford Kent engine in a rally car, where there is a need of a broader spread of power, you will see an 4 into 2 into 1 exhaust manifold, which will generate THREE times as many reflections benefiting a greater speed range - producing a broader torque range - needed by rally drivers. And how fast does that low pressure reflection wave travel at - it's the speed of sound - but the speed of sound changes relative to the pressure, density and temperature of the medium (i.e. gas or liquid) being considered. Those two stroke motorcycle racers who lagged their exhaust pipes on cold days had already realised this. If you have read this far - big respect - and please give me a thumbs up!!!?

    I love the info on the valve timing on the V12 and V6 being similar giving the lovely linear power curve. I was given a spirited ride in a 246 Dino when I was 17 and have loved the V6 ever since.

    15:23 the difference in the timing of the camshaft has probably more to do with the lag of the carburetion rather than tensile factors

    Great video as usual, Iain. Nice to know that my humble 2.4 Fiat Dino coupe had the same valve timing as a Daytona. Redlined at 8000, although I only ever went up to 7500, the Dino engine always pulled very smoothly low down and gave a noticeable surge as it hit 4000. Great sound too, needless to say!

    I think that is just old bad information that’s part of the automotive world, I’ve been an engine builder my whole 51 years in the business, we use Fram on these v12s exclusively. Never have had an issue , and at a cost of around 50 k per engine, you don’t take any chances on unproven parts.

    I can possibly help answer you.I worked for a largeish motor factors and Fram spin on oil filters were our main stock.However we did have occasional issues that their threads didnt quite match the recieving thread on the engine and on one occasssion as a separate issue a filter " burst" at its base plate although Fram said it had been overtightened and /or the oil pressure relief valve on the car may have siezed shut.Overall however we had very few returns.

    Iain that note on the paper on the dash read “ don’t forget your top gun sunglasses Iain”. The other surprise on this car is the driving position which looks spot on; no short legs and long arms. It would be good to show people how those wheels are removed- most wont believe it! Great film and full of little Daytona nuggets. Who knew linear power curve to 7700. Almost unheard of on other cars. Porsche didn’t go this route. Nor Jaguar. 5.6 seconds is another world in 1969!

    The pipes likely acted as somewhat crude Helmholtz resonators, working to cancel out a droning exhaust sound. By delaying the timing of pressure variations, you can selectively cancel certain frequencies based on the length and diameter of the pipe. I would very much like to see the inside of the silencer to determine how it recombines. It may also promote power at a certain RPM. Either to tune out a power dip, or give a boost at low or high revs to improve driveability. P.s. US auto regulations continue to be a thorn in the side of automotive beauty. Love the old plexi's. edit: For the inclined and the pedantic: Helmholtz resonators are typically closed. But the phenomenon remains regardless of terminology.
