    Hi Ferrari Family! I am currently in the process of getting ready to rebuild the motor on my 06' F430.

    Little back story, purchased the car knowing it had no oil pressure. (great deal on car)

    Disabled the motor and discovered a collapsed lifter stuck in the head. Luckily the damage was isolated to the head and we were able to salvage the head with just replacing one valve. That being said the lifer top got bounced around and there was lots of glitter. So we decided to fully dissasemble the motor and do a minor overhaul to make sure everything was clean. We pretty much have all the parts together (i almost died when I found out what rod bolts cost) and I am still unable to find the engine rebuild specs. I have experience building engines, this is not a youtube diy situation.

    I have the standard service manual that is available and it does not have any pages with engine rebuild procedures.

    I have also reached out to a few of the forum members that have mentioned they have the pages with no luck or response.

    So, I need your help! If someone has access to the documentation need to properly reassemble my motor I would be very grateful!

    Some fun pics or start the conversation!

    Also, if anyone is in North Florida you are welcome to come check it out!

    Should I start a rebuild thread?

    Matt Armstrong on YouTube re built a F430 engine.
    I think he used a Maserati tech manual as he had the same problem.
    Worth checking out his channel.

    Contact Matt via IG or YT
    Hopefully he’ll give you some advice, although he’s a very busy guy.
