Hi afterburner. I'd appreciate one one of your color diagrams for the 1978 308 GTS NA version.
Du_Man I purchased a Rennspeed rear bumper for my 308 to replace a shattered in shipping used one from Austraila. The Rennspeed part had the wrong...
Du-Man post 7. I fabricated the valence piece from a similar fiberglass one I got from England some years ago. I had to modify the piece to...
The folks at PMB offered me the one alluminum set they still had but turned it down because they told me the parking brake did not work due to a...
I did my valence like this: [ATTACH] This is what the chassis mount looks like on my 1978 GTS Special. I'm doing my own mounts for a fiberglass...
I've run into a show stopper. The rear wheel that needed a weld repair now needs a 4-inch weld bead machined and heat treated. A. I'm looking for...
Thank you very much Gordon. I guess that's what I was hopping for, no worse than OE. The rest of my system is Girodisc. Do you know if any of the...
GordonC What has been your experience with the PMB rear calipers? Is hand brake action and effectiveness the same as or better than OE? Any down...
Thanks 61etype. I hope BigTex still has a rear Cromodora.
After heat treating I'll have to machine the repair then conversion coat. Dings and dents can be filled with J-B Weld original steel filed epoxy....
For the Cromodoras, I know the alloy is AZ81A. Powder coating temperatures are less than 400F. Stress relief occurs at 500F and the solution...
Hi BigTex I'm looking for a Cromodora rear wheel with the raised letters, Ferrari part no. 120927. Can you help?
Hard to say it is worth it yet. I have 4 fronts and 2 rears. All wheels have their issues. One is a process sample because there is a large weld...
I just found out one of my rears has what is likely a crack or at the very least a casting defect. I viewed the area on the back side with...
I did some follow up research on AZ81A. From the ASM Metals Handbook, Volume 2, Tenth Edition, Properties and Selection: Nonferrous Alloys and...
Yes, this is what I would expect. I believe you are correct in all respects. Off Idle may go rich upon uncovering the first progression hole...
Actually, I think crank fired ignitions simplify the spark system as they eliminate the distributor(s). They are also a lot more accurate and stable.
My engine builder recommended Brad Penn oil for my 3X8 and Lotus 26R engine builds....
I really like the design. Did you make it? I do have concern regarding a fiberglass (polyester resin?), air tight box, carb mounted. I suspect a...
Mark and Paul, thanks for your solutions for the air box flow problem. I've been thinking along the same lines. Paul, those are some interesting...
