    Also a few surprises from my ind f mech during her major service:
    stock ex mani cracked on drivers side ins coming out..... so having fab speed headers installed.
    slight weep from clutch fitting, getting sorted,
    water pump weep - new water pump as pm, stocks of these are low I'm told,
    new tires,
    getting psgr side rims refin due to curb rash slight,
    paint correction.... who get's door dings on an f car? :::: they came out very nice.
    new timing belts/tensioners,
    oil change, new coolant,
    get radio code....
    inspection,
    hopefully back in my grubby paws next tuesday.

    hopeful the ex note even with stock 2nd cats and muff.... will wake up with the headers.

    Cheers all.

    Does your owner's manual leather folio also come with the coveted maglight as well?! That would be a good news care package since a lot of people tend to keep those before selling the car to the next owner

    Was able to sell a couple old rollies to build up funds. 2004 circa SeaDweller, buh-bye off to new home in Florida...... 2007 circa 18k/ss Sub buh-bye off to same new home in Florida. as a side note...... I bought these 2nd hand with box/papers in 2005 and 2010.... and each went up 15-20%..... never lost $ on those time pcs.

    Going to run the car with the stock ex + fab speed headers 1st....... then add the CS muff later to keep the sounds thrilling for my new neighbors.

    Cheers All. thx for your patience with this f car newbbbbbbb.

    Only 15-20%? Sounds low. Sorry you had to sell those to fund the repairs. I´m a watch guy too and the Ferrari will be gone long before my watches. :)

    @one4torque Since you seem to be giving your car a thorough sorting-out, it might be worth checking this out, as it seems to eventually affect most every manual 360:

    https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/360-shifter-bushing-repair.249934/

    I only discovered it after my car resisted going into 6th one time on the freeway (it has only happened once in 3000 miles). After reading the thread I noticed my shifter had a few mm of play when wiggled side to side in neutral. Having the busing replaced now while it's in for annual service.
