Re: maserati V6's



I'm not sure how I missed the original post, but anyway....I think the earlier SM/Merak V6 was all-aluminum and had traditional DOHC 2-valve hemi heads. The Biturbo V6, which was developed and used exclusively for turbocharged applications, has an iron block and SOHC, but sports 3 valves per cylinder (later versions got DOHC and 4 or 6 valves though).

To those who might know/ care / have input:

How is the V-6 in the Bi-Turbo related to the V-6 in the Citroen
Maserati (SM).
Aside from the fact that they are both V-6's, I don't believe that they
have much in common at all.
