Ferrari 430 VS Porsche 911 Carrera S
Ferrari 430
The 30 stands for the engine size in liters. It was really 2926cc which is 2.926 liters, and was then rounded up to 3.0 liters. Since the numbers never had decimal points it was just 30. Now the last part or the 8 was for the number of cylinders or 8. So taken together, the 308 number means a V8 engine of about 3 liters in capacity. All Ferraris do not use this approach, so be careful and don't assume a car like a Ferrari 330 is a 3.3 liter engine with zero cylinders.
