1973\u21921975 Lancia Stratos Group 4<\/h1>\n

The Stratos was homologated in 1974 as a Group 4 contender in the World Rally Championship and it’s successful design helped Sandro Munari and Bj\u00f6rn Waldeg\u00e5rd win the championships in 1974, 1975 and 1976.<\/span><\/p>\n

Like the road-going Stradale version the Group 4 used Ferrari’s Dino 2.4-liter V6 engine but tuned to 275 hp for the 12-valve version and 320 hp for the 24 valve version. This was possible with forged billet aluminum pistons, a ported and gas-flowed cylinder head, larger 45mm valves and twin-throat 48 IDF Weber down-draft carburetors.<\/p>\n

The transmission was changed to dog-leg-type gearbox with cascade ratios with all new ratios and fitted to a new sintered-metallic dual-plate clutch and lightweight flywheel.<\/p>\n

The suspension was fully rose-jointed with Bilstein telescopic dampers over Eibach coil springs.<\/p>\n

Braking was upgraded to 267mm AP Vented Discs w\/AP\/Lockheed 4-Piston Aluminum Monobloc Calipers which stopped Campagnolo 8×15 wheels.<\/p>\n

We are like kids in a candy store, except the candy is made of metal, goes vroom-vroom, and occasionally bankrupts us faster than a sugar rush at a candy store sale! We spend hours debating the merits of turbochargers versus superchargers, and our weekends are a never-ending quest for the perfect polish and wax combo. We can identify every make and model by the sound of a revving engine, and our idea of a romantic evening is a candlelit dinner with our cars in the garage.","sameAs":["http:\/\/www.supercars.net","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Supercars.net\/","https:\/\/instagram.com\/super.cars.fans","https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/supercars_net"],"url":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/author\/supercars\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230258","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=230258"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/230258\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/230273"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=230258"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=230258"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=230258"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
