Ferrari Mailing List: Re: 328gt4

[Robert Garven (rgarven]

Grahame,

Here is how all the lists relate. This was the first and best!! They
all sprang from the F-list!! I hang out at F-caht in the tech and 308
area and also on Carl Jones  Yahoo tech list.

I also belong to the "Death to Ferrari List" just to say Im on all the lists!!

Most ferrari guys I know use Castrol LMA, I just messed up a brake
line doing a wheel bearing job, see my other post.

I just fitted a 18mm rear bar from superformance, it went on great but
the rubber bushing weree way to big however the original ones seemed
to work. Not susre what it will do buy off the car the OEM one looks
like a coathanger!!
