    Hi gents,

    I am a recent onwer of a F355 - 1995, motronic 2.7. I am posting a thread in this section because I realised the F355 specific forum provided me with poor technical feedback. Hopefuly I can get more from posting here.

    I have bought a Larini Exhaust package + test pipes. It is a used package and it does not come with gaskets. See pictutre attached.

    The car has a stock system installed and I want to re-use as much of the parts as possible. Some of the parts are eye-watering expensive, such as # 1 and #31 in the diagram.

    I need to order the consumables and potentially siezed nut/bolts. I believe I can do it myself, done it many times in jag e-types and other american cars, but never in Ferraris. However, I need upfront preparations (ordering) as I live in the Brazil and parts come from abroad. Lead time to get parts can be over 30 days.

    From what I can see, I will need 4x item #22 (£8/ea) and 1x item 08 (£9/ea). The question is, whatelse should I order (blue and green in the diagram)?
    - item 11 (£53 x2)? Expensive!
    - item 31 (£25 x4)? Expensive!
    - bolts/nuts/washers 13, 14,16,17,18,19,20,29,30,32,33?

    The technical help from this forum is important and I trust your input will add a lot of valiue for this little project.

    Your feedback will be much appreciated!
    Thank you all!
    Fred

    I would think the items in green could be replaced with standard stainless steel nuts and bolts?

    And the gaskets can be replaced with any exhaust gasket material. I used copper rtv on the joints where 11 is without issue, and you shouldn't need new 11's unless you break them taking them off. If you do there are alternative replacements for way cheaper, just measure the size (don't remember it off-hand) and shop for v-band exhaust clamps.

    Thanks guys! So basically the ones circled in red are the only ones I will order. They are not expensive.

    The blue circled items are not prone to damage, if I understood well, correct?
