How Many U.S. 1995 Berlinettas?

N/A VIN list has 316 cars. 36 of them are non-Berlinettas, which leaves 280 cars. So if there are 336 95 N/A manual B’s, this implies there’s only roughly 56 single pump 95 N/A Berlinettas.

If dual pump production is speculated to end around May 95, this implies there wasn’t a whole lot of Berlinetta production the rest of the year.

@ThunderDent build date of your single pump 95?

 

Confirmed October 1994 on 100498. My engine number is 37xxx range, the block casting date is 7/94 and the heads are 6/94.

 

Last dual pump U.S B is 102458, which should be a challenge car. Only 56 95 N/A cars came after?

 

Did they basically stop making Berlinetta's for a year around the time of the fuel pump changeover?

 

Just slowed down rate. Focus probably transitioned to Spider and GTS as they had already been building Berlinettas for almost a year.

Dual pump change over should be May/June 1995. Which implies only 56 cars between June-Dec 1995.

 

BTW. The list is for dual pump spiders and GTS’. There’s a whole lot more 2.7 Spiders than that

355registry shows 252 95 U.S Spiders. I didn’t count CDN Spiders.

Beautiful spec on that car.

 

I dropped my motor this week for it's scheduled 30 year service. First time F355 engine dropper here.

I was noting the factory paint marks and there is an A marked on the crank pulley bolt. It would be interesting to see if that relates at all to piston/rod weights or something else. "A" code connecting rods are supposed to be the lightest according to the WSM, so there's my hypothesis.

I'm gathering that only around the first hundred NA F355 Berlinetta's had the "early" numbered motors?

The registry list 7 95 spider in Swaters Blu. 2 with tan interior and black tops. One is mine.

 

@Matt Andrews was the previous owner of Blu Sera/Tan #099982. Fabspeed headers, straight pipes (not sure about Y-pipe), Capristo muffler. He swears his car is fast. I didn’t actually believe him because he was running Fabspeed 4-1 headers lol.

 

Oh, one more thing,

I had an unimpressive experience driving a 95 B with Fabspeed headers, straight pipes, Kreisseig spiral Y-Pipe, and Capristo muffler. I was picking up the car from GTO Engineering. They had just finished servicing. He wanted me to drive it to give an impression. It just felt like bypass took forever to open up. Felt nothing like my cars. I blamed it on Fabspeed headers lol. It was probably a combination of a bad bypass valve and Fabspeeds imo. Owner said the bypass issue is now fixed and I should give it another go. I’ve been waiting to put my car together for a back to back comparison as I wanted to show him the difference.

I just looked at pics I took and the car is a single pump 95.
