    Hello folks,

    I was wondering if anyone can recommend a reputable prepurchase inspection service in Phoenix Arizona? I am hoping to find someone familiar with and knowledgeable about the 2.4 liter motor and the Fiat dino. Any replies would be most appreciated; thanks so much.

    There is no difference between the Fiat 2.4 and the Ferrari 246 motor so any good Ferrari tech will be able to do a good PPI. The rest of the car not being mid-engine is of course different but again any Ferrari tech worth his overalls will have no issues figuring it out.

    Its not rocket science, in reality any good tech should be able to do a PPI but I would recommend a Ferrari tech because that motor is expensive to rebuild if its not right.

    Sorry, I don't know anyone in Phoenix for you but someone here will reply soon enough.

    Call Dave or Bill at GT Car Parts, outside Phoenix. 623-780-2200. They may have a name for you, or be willing to provide the service.
