I recently cleaned/restored the tanks on my 1979 308 GTS/US carb, see pic. I used a high temperature wheel silver on the outside, followed by a...
@bitsobrits great pic of your carb engine! (based on the 1977 Giallo B in your profile) Are you planning to measure cam timing to spec? What all...
Concur with the questions @miketuason is asking. I'm guessing your brake pedal is hard as a rock(?) When you step on the brake, the booster may...
Just FYI, some data points...no affiliation on my part. There are currently two pairs of Turbo's on eBay, both manual operation, both non-oem for...
I did a quick image review on European carb cars. Seems the original Vitaloni Californian mirrors on these appear to be consistently placed just...
Chris, et al. Looks like there may have been two versions of the OEM Turbo Vitaloni mirror base. Here are some pics of (what I believe are) OEM...
@chris_columbia Chris - Thanks and will do, I'm currently out of town, but I've got a set of OEM electrics laying around, so I'll capture some...
Here's my 1980 Dry Sump with aftermarket OEM Style Manual Full Vitaloni Turbos with aftermarket (lapel based) rectangular shields. Extremely...
I've done this a couple of times, most current on a Euro dry sump with non-electric mirrors. My non-electrics were an easy/bolt on. If you don't...
@Dockboy, got it, that helps as I'll keep my eyes open as I'm often looking at 308 wheels for fun... FWIW, here's an early (circa 2004) F-chat...

@Dockboy please double check Birdman's thread, I'm reading the manufacturer to be "S.L. Comp" wheels (and not S.P. Comp) Not sure if SL Comp is...
@dyerhaus : On my 1979 308 GTS USA/NA spec, I have the similar black grounding wire with a loop which grounds via one of the P-Clips studs on the...
Compression is also a function of the process the mechanic used (or should have used). For example, was it a cold engine with throttle plates...
Rob - Hard to say based on a quick read of their BaT profile (they also bought a modified Bug, couple of 240Z's, Targa/G50, 928 and a GT-R all in...
Dave M @dave80gtsi to the rescue, THANK YOU! I had a 1980 GTSi many moons ago, and didn't recall this "feature", I think because somebody had...
I don't I saw this BaT 308 GTBi discussed in this thread, but I have a question: What are the two 90 degree tubes coming out of both sides of the...
Dave @dave80gtsi here are my best and worst, from a 1979 308 GTS USA. The other two forks range in bow somewhere in-between these two. I'm...
This is what Robert's 308 GTB register says about c/n 20231 (no country in the last column, so I clipped it) [ATTACH]
