The Glickenhaus by Pipo Moteurs P21 engine is a twin-turbocharged, four-stroke, 3.5-liter, V8 racing engine, designed and produced by Pipo Moteurs for use in the Glickenhaus SCG 007 LMH, from 2021 to 2023.[1]

Overview

The engine is designed by French engine tuner and manufacturer, Pipo Moteurs.[2] They used their previous experience with inline-4 World Rally Championship engines as a reference to design the new motor.[3][4] However, due to the different rules between the series, there was only two components that were carried over, the 96 mm (3.78 in) bore spacing and cylinder head stud pattern.[5] The engine has a crankshaft height of 96 mm (3.78 in), a deck height of 219 mm (8.62 in) and a bank offset of 19 mm (0.75 in). The firing order of the P21 is 1-8-3-6-4-5-2-7.[5] Pipo Moteurs decided to use a symmetrical turbo for packaging purposes inside the Glickenhaus SCG 007 LMH. Garrett Motion was chosen as the supplier for the two reverse-rotation turbochargers.[5]
