Thanks. We will take a closer look and make a decision. A head gasket prompted the issue, not valvetrain issues or excessive smoke. In fact, in 15...
Oh, they wish to do everything. I understand they are not sodium filled. So will keep them.
The shop is used to doing very high end cars (even vintage Ferrari F1 cars go through there). I suspect their standard is to suggest to replace...
Just reposting here a question I posted in the technical section. Does anyone have firsthand knowledge whether a Testarossa has sodium filled...
Does anyone have a definitive answer to whether the valves in a Testarossa are sodium filled? The factory service manual is silent on this point....
I have 2 Countaches and a 5.7 Diablo (as well as a TR and a BB). The most fun of them all to drive is my LP400S, followed by the LP5000s. Tiny,...
My Euro 91 has standard headers (no pre cats), test pipes and a Capistro muffler. Sounds fantastic inside and outside the car. No complaints.
I had straight pipes on my Diablo 5.7 out of Japan when I got it. There are probably active war zones in the world where that level of sound...
Replace the vent hoses on the fuel tank at the firewall. Mine were so brittle, they were a fire hazard. I usually swap out the thermostats, as it...
If you only want third party liability, ACI in Italy offers it, useable around the entire EU for about €9 per day. Just don’t damage your car.
Did you get it back?
You obviously have never read a UAE newspaper before...

Not an English lawyer, but I suspect the 512 could definitely be identified as a specific other car beyond any doubt. Perhaps not the F40.
When buying a 30 year old garden variety Ferrari, it is very difficult to conduct proper due diligence on a VIN (except for M. Massini, whose help...
I thought the stolen and recovered car was a 512M and not a Testarossa.
Perhaps I am overthinking it. The 1-6 head came off easily. The Evans made for no discolouration, rust, etc. The coolant passages look really...
Looks well made! I will share the photos with the guys who are making the jig. Many thanks.
Thanks for the offer of the loan. The car is in Dubai and I hope to take the heads to Modena next month; getting a jig made here should be...
When mine broke, I bought a replacement made in bronze from Rock’s Auto Restoration in Toronto.
