Leo B. Peschl Classic Sports Cars
Austrian born Leo Peschl was successful in the trucking industry establishing a vast Caterpillar network in Russia which allowed him to indulge in classic Maserati. Unsatisfied with the care he found on the market, he started his workshop in Cologne Germany and set about applying his typical perfectionism and productivity to the task, which resulted in a wonderful and well-organised workshop. A one-man per car methodology is in place. His innovative thinking and Teutonic sense of organisation have covered every aspect from parts sourcing to 3D printing, from identifying as precisely as possible the production variations between the first and last versions of any given Maserati model. All this is the result of an enthusiast driven approach, of his quest to establish the utopian workshop.
Check out the development of parts for classic Maseratis at LP Classic Sports Cars.
We pride ourselves in developing parts for the six-cylinder engines and V8 models. Please read about our NEW cylinder head; the first made for a Maserati twin-cam six-cylinder engine since 1967! Also, learn about our inlet and outlet camshafts for all Maserati 3.5, 3.7 and 4.0-litre engines! We've also developed an A/C conversion set for Maserati V8 models.

CYLINDER HEAD
The first NEW cylinder head for a Maserati twin-cam six-cylinder engine since 1967!
Worn out cylinder heads are a major challenge today. Unfortunately, most heads suffered from corrosion, distortions caused by overheating or from various mechanical damage caused by previous faulty repairs. Often, these damages can not be resolved entirely and may terminally ruin an engine’s performance. This motivated us to initiate the remanufacturing of new cylinder heads.
LP Classis Sports Cars offers new cylinder heads for Maserati 3500GT/ GTi, Sebring and Mistral (AM101.xx/AM109.xx); applicable for 3,5, 3,7 and 4,0-litre engines with carburation and fuel injection as well as for internal and external oil supply. We deliver the new heads with cam cups for the inlet and outlet camshaft. Material: G - AlSi7Mg0.3T6
Compression tests, pressure blow by test, and performance tests of all newly installed cylinder heads indicate unprecedented performance levels and an almost complete absence of vibrations.
The following options are available:
- Cylinder head 3500 (carburation, internal oil supply)
- Cylinder head 3500 (carburation, external oil supply)
- Cylinder head 3500 (fuel injection)
- Cylinder head 3700 (fuel injection)
- Cylinder head 4000 (Fuel injection)
Asking Price (head plus cups) (ex VAT): € 16,000.-
CAMSHAFTS
Inlet and outlet camshafts for all Maserati 3,5/3,7 and 4,0-litre engines!
Our experience shows that camshafts lose lifting height because of material wear and the machining process associated with cam repairs. Furthermore, with each repair/ grinding operation, the camshaft profile deviates further away from its original layout. This easily may cause a performance drop of up to 12 – 14 BHP per cylinder, or up to 25% of the ex-factory specified total engine output.
LP Classic Sports Cars commissioned the rebuild of new camshafts machined precisely up to the original factory specs in terms of lifting camshaft stroke and cam profile.
The following options are available:
. Inlet/ outlet camshaft , 3500 up to AM101.1206 (Carburation)
. Inlet/ outlet camshaft , 3500 from AM 1208 up to AM101.1890 (Carburation)
. Inlet/ outlet camshaft, 3500 from 1892 (Fuel Injection)
. Inlet/ outlet camshaft, 3700 (Fuel Injection)
. Inlet/ outlet camshaft, 4000 (Fuel Injection)
Asking Price (inlet and outlet shaft) (ex VAT): € 2500.-
A/C CONVERSION SET
A/C Conversion set for Maserati V8 models: AM112, AM115 AM116 and AM120
Most of the originally installed A/C compressors are noisy and ineffective. We often meet owners fearing significant engine damage fooled by the mechanical noise of the original York A/C compressor. Therefore, we designed a new system around a modern ‘swash plate’ compressor that allows for at least 50% more air volume throughput and operates almost noise-free.
The set includes a compressor, fitting plate, expansion bottle, all hoses and fittings, as well as a fixture for installation and alignment of compressor and water pump.
This set may be installed without any changes or interference with the cars’ original set-up. It may also be reconverted at any time.
The following options are available:
- Conversion set for AM112.xxx to AM116.xxx
- Conversion set for AM120.xxx
Asking Price (Set) (ex VAT): € 3350.-
