3) A theoretically outclassed Corvette Sting Ray, after nine hours of cut and thrust, popped up in fifth place among the Ferraris. Then, sadly, as if shaken by its audacity, the Corvette flipped its lid—blew a cylinder-head gasket. By all means, let old Enzo Ferrari justly collect his bravos.

One difference between the works and customer cars was the aluminum engine block on the factory team cars.

Chevrolet pioneered the small-block V8 engine in 1955, a basic engine concept that has remained in continuous production since that time, longer than any other mass-produced engine design in the global automotive industry. Today's descendants of this ground-breaking engine share the concept but benefit from continuous advances in technology.
There was, however, one earth-shattering addition to the line: the ZL-1. The ZL-1 engine was basically an L88 427 big-block V8 done up in all-aluminum construction, which made it 20 to 25 pounds lighter than a small-block. Intended for road racing and equipped accordingly, only two of the 585-horsepower ZL-1s were produced.
Ferrari's Dino project of the late 1956 gave birth to the company's well-known 65° V6 DOHC engines. This Vittorio Jano design formed the basis of the company's modern engines right up through the mid-2000s (decade). Another series of V6 engines was started in 1959 with a 60° V-angle and single overhead camshafts design. Dino 65° DOHC

The small-block Chevrolet was still in its infancy when Zora Arkus-Duntov thought to ditch the iron casting and go to a more weight-conscious aluminum construction. These V-8 engines are pieces of small-block history, cast in 1959 for the Chevrolet Engineering Research Vehicle (CERV) project that became the first seed of the mid-engine Corvette ...

In stark contrast to that odd-firing arrangement, V12 engines with a 60° block and a 120° crankshaft (such as the Rolls-Royce Merlin and Griffon aero engines; BMW, Ferrari, Maserati, Jaguar automotive engines, and many others) have even-firing sequences, in which each firing pulse is evenly separated from its predecessor and its successor by ...
By the time the second-generation Corvette Sting Ray came out for 1963, the W-engine had 409 ci and produced 425 hp with solid lifters and dual four-barrel Carters, but again, it wasn't on the new Vette's option list. Duntov didn't feel the "fat block" 409 could pull its own weight.

A luminum engine blocks have been around for many years for both stock and performance applications. Aluminum has a number of advantages over cast iron, the most obvious one being weight.
