    I know but I can actually use the 348 anytime. Much more comfortable and fun. Not much quicker though unfortunately. Gonna do cat deletes... Hear they add 25whp! Not to mention the sound! 😁

    Looks like the car won't be going in for the major this weekend so I'm going to take it up to the show on Indian Bend tomorrow. Are you going to stop by with yours?

    I don't think I'm going to make it but I'll double check our plans with the wife tomorrow.

    Probably going in for major Wednesday!

    Josh,

    Your front wheels are on the wrong sides. They need to be switched over. Look at your rears and you will see what I mean. If your at Andy's having a major service done have him flip them.

    My Spider will be up at Andy's this month for a fluid change when we get back from Coronado Is. Mid July. might see you then.

    Ciao.
    Stephen.

    Thanks!! Yeah, I've read the recent posts. I have nothing against 355's, I considered one as well. Just preferred the Testarossa style. Reminds me of my childhood. 😁😁

    I'm very pleased so far! Shop says the car is in perfect shape! Looks like major was really done 1500 miles ago like claimed.(7 years though). T belt looks new still! As with plugs and clutch! 😊

    Sports Car Service in Tempe. Very impressed so far!! Needed it done soon so I didn't have time to have Andy do it this time.

    So happy right now! I just barely avoided catastrophe...

    The timing gear bearings had play side to side and we decided to pull the pan and front cover to inspect. Turns out the bearing was falling apart along with the needle bearing in the rear. It could have taken out my motor in hundreds on miles or less.

    Check it out!
