Mark, the copper paint doesn’t have the flow of non-hardening sealant or the elasticity of RTV silicone. I really want this finished before I die...
You could try mixing some of that aircraft sealant with you Evans coolant and see if it dissolves. My reasoning with my low torque, wait 24 hrs...
From what I remember there has to be contact between the metals to create the circuit so good to keep the SS pipe from touching the chassis/body.
From cold, drive it at high rpms around the block for a minute, then check temp of each exhaust. You should see which cylinders are not firing....
Do I get a gold star? glad it was something easy
... another simple diagnostic is to run it for a couple of minutes and then use an infrared thermometer or a wet finger on the exhaust (be...
I’d start with easy things like add an earth wire from coil base to engine, try another battery or add a battery with jumpers. I don’t think it’s...
He’s keeping the best part— that gorgeous PF Fioravanti body (and legally it’s the chassis that makes it a Ferrari.)
If you do the 3D drawing (or pay someone $10 to do it on Freelancer) then most small independent machinists can do it for you (look on eBay,...
I suspect that many in this lower-mid end of the market are like me where a good chunk of their assets are in cars and we have spouses or partners...
When all else is lost, at least we have hope . Do you think it’s insufficient clamping at the ends? No chance of a tiny crack or hole from the...

Since it’s worth more for parts, you have little downside risk trying to save it. You might get it running, fall in love with it, or just find it...
I would add stop leak and retorque then go through a few more heat cycles. Worth a try. I coated my gaskets with high temp silicone around the...
I wonder how many owners of more modern Ferraris work on their cars? Many of us do, so we have more knowledge to share and often need help from...
It’s looking stunning Paul! Are those window trim pieces aluminium? You say they were anodized which suggests aluminium.
BaT 1978 Ferrari 308 GTS Sold for $56,500 This reflects the typical cost of making it a $90k car
Bitcoin: Zero intrinsic value, can’t get you from A to B, still making thousands of new ones per day, ugly (I saw one), never gonna get you laid....
Hope this is the last time I see that image Mark. Really hoping that "I got you babe" on my clock radio doesn't wake me up tomorrow :-)
Hi Graham, I put my efforts on hold until Andrew’s inventory is finished (if there is still demand.) Anyone making the effort to keep parts...
