Formula 3000 is a type of formula racing.

Engines

Formula 3000 replaced Formula Two, and was so named because the engines used initially were 3.0 L (3000 cc) Cosworth DFV engines made obsolete by the change of Formula One from the 3.0 L normally aspirated engines around this time. The rules permitted any 90-degree V8 engine. As well as the Cosworth, a Honda engine based on an Indy V8 by John Judd also appeared; a rumoured Lamborghini V8 never raced. In later years, a Mugen-Honda V8 became the thing to have, eclipsing the Cosworth DFV; Cosworth later responded with the brand new AC engine. Costs were heading out of control...
