Gollum Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I'm not sure how many of us here have actually worked on Ferrari engines, but someone I grew up around owned a Ferrari-specific shop for years in the bay area and was well respected in that field. They're NOT cheap to buy parts for. Simple rebuild kits cost more than what most of us have in our entire engines, and in some cases cars! I'd sooner build a flat plane crank domestic V8 that I know I can find cheap cores for than buy a used Ferrari engine that needed work. Oh, and the very nature of Ferrari is against you. Concrete repair information isn't easy to find, and it all stems from the fact that Ferrari doesn't like to give out information needlessly. You won't find FSM's for them and if you do find ANYTHING it probably won't be nearly as in-depth as you want. Most info will be community based, and few Ferrari owners actually work on their own, so even that information pool is shallow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelly Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 They're also not cheap on specialty tools. I've toyed with getting a 355F1 or a 360 Challenge. The cost of ownership is bad enough... The cost of "figuring it out yourself" can be daunting. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
