    Does anyone know the best place to buy the kit for a full belt service? Are there different manufactures and which one has the best bang for the buck? I’m a long way from a service shop, but I’ve got a Tech. that takes care of a fleet of Ferraris for a collector and he does the belt service all the time. I just want to check him on the cost of the kit. Thanks.

    Thank you for the votes of confidence! Yes, we have the complete F355 service kit listed here:

    http://www.ricambiamerica.com/product_info.php?cPath=40&products_id=261105

    On the F355, the important thing is to let us know whether you have a 1995 (dual fuel filter) or 1996+ (single fuel filter) car. The rest is all the same, regardless of vintage. Yes, it includes Hill Engineering tensioner bearings and Ferrari Genuine timing belts. It sounds like your tech is pretty capable, but we do offer to include the workshop manual at no charge on USB drive with your purchase....let us know if you'd like it.

    Now that I do find very interesting. Of the literally hundreds of questions I get put to me here by those wishing to repair or service their own cars because they are too lazy or cheap to buy a service manual with just a few of the dollars they are saving and here you are giving them away.


    Sheesh

    Next thing you know they will be too lazy to plug it into the side of the computer. After all, why go direct to the source for reliable information when you can ask some self proclaimed internet expert and follow God knows what kind of crazy advice.

    Can you Email me a quote on your complete kit? We own an Auto Body Shop, if there's a price diff. Also I'd like to have the workshop manual if you can. Is the kit in stock and ready for shipping? My address is [email protected]. Thanks
