I've been tearing down engines on camera for 2 and a half years! Search my channel to see what I've torn down. 
This is a VERY special teardown. A huge thanks to Bill in Pennsylvania for supplying this particular engine to the channel! This is a core F160 3.0L Twin Turbo V6 from a 2015 Maserati Ghibli. This engine has Ferrari, Maserati and even some Chrysler design in its blood, whether good or bad. This engine produces between 345 and 404hp depending on trim level and I believe that's all in the tuning(Boost levels). This engine was both impressive and depressing as it had some of the most high quality machining we've seen on the channel. It also failed in such an unfortunate way and I'm not sure how you'd keep this from happening. 

Why on Mars am I doing these teardowns? I own and run a full service auto salvage business in the Saint Louis area called Importapart. Part of our model is buying blown, core and unwanted engines and dismantling them to resell the good, usable parts. We do not rebuild engines, we merely supply parts to those who do. 

I really hope you enjoyed this teardown. As always, I love all of the comments, feedback, and even the criticism. Catch you on the next one!
