I drive a lot of different Ferraris and I skip gears frequently in traffic situations. However, when the road is open, I do love the sound of all...
I would not be afraid of this car. It is an old car and numbers will not be perfect. Compression test is very good indicator of possible issues....
What are you going to do with the carb after you get it off? FYI, 360 is correct, the end cap unscrews.
I have worked with the Galileo which is a portable Leonardo and so far, I have not been able to modify a Proxi file with there software. I am not...
Until you run out of valve shims thickness, so you have to be thinking about it as you set up the valves. I don't set up valves that need non...
In my experience with that oil pressure sender, they rarely malfunction on both scales (light & gauge). I have had no pressure reading but the...
At TDC, there will always be a cylinder at TDC with the valves at overlap and another cylinder at TDC compression. I haven't had a 412 open...
At TDC on compression, yes. At TDC at the end of the exhaust stroke & the start of the intake stroke, both are open, overlap. So at some point...
Yes, this is possible. I am aware of which pistons are up when I am installing the cams and just make sure I don't let one hit. You do need to be...
Looks like Steve reads minds. I had no idea what the OP was looking for. Good on you Steve. o_O
You can lock the cam with the trick as you assemble the heads on the block. I usually don't put the cams in until the after heads are on though.
Cut a strip of business card and put it under a cam cap. Snug the cap and that will keep the cam from rotating while you get it all lined up.
When assembling the engine and installing the cams, number one is at TDC and the cam has both valves open in overlap. The intake is the easiest...
What Qavion said. Diagnostic is no too bad on that system.
Bring the engine to TDC compression for cylinder #1. Install the compression test hose with out the shrader valve installed and connect shop air....
LocTite, What fun. Sometimes I hate that stuff. But when you need it, you need it. I am thinking a cable that has no way of unscrewing itself even...
2005? I am not sure what this is. Is it a Valeo edition Mondial? the 09/93 on the box would indicate that. I may have a guy that knows how to fix...
On very high strung race engines (358 V8, 900hp) I would use a drill and spin the dry sump pump while using an oil heater on the oil tank. The...
I had a 360 client that found an old air strip and did some "drag racing". I wasn't able to save the flywheel or anything in the clutch department...
I will say this. Find a tech that knows a lot about Ferrari gearboxes. I have worked on many old gearboxes that have had previous work and the...
