The TR (and 512TR) differential carriers are multi-piece weldments. The
512M carrier is one piece. I asked several Ferrari mechanics, whose
opinion I value, whether it is necessary to replace the original style
carrier with the 512M and they said that unless the vehicle was really
beaten on (drop clutch starts, etc.) that it wasn't needed. The fact
that the car you're interested in was tracked would change the equation
a bit. Does it have the 512TR or the 512M carrier?

512TR or 512M diff and trans? The 512M is considered more robust.

Listers,
The search for the LHD 512TR continues but they are as rare as hens teeth
and I may have to go to Switzerland or France for the car. In the meantime I
have been offered a LHD 1988 TR from a FOC club member with some mods (and
all the original parts). Now I have talked to Clyde in person and he never
fails to tell me what a bag of sick the TR is but the price difference is
about £12000 and after the little incident of totalling the 328 I am going
to drive a bit slower regardless in the future.
This TR has a 512 diff and tranny, 18" comp wheels, upgraded clutch and servo, F355 front brakes, and has only 12k miles on it. The last 3k have been spent on the track with the FOC classic race series here in the UK so the car is well known and it was taken care of by GTO engineering. Just had the full service with belts, valves, ect. I realise that 3k of racing miles puts a lot of wear on the car but its still pretty low miles.
Any thoughts on these upgrades vs the full 512TR package?
Britt

Nice cafr. Having been where you are just about two years ago I remember exactly how you feel.
And, I'm glad DeMoise Trucking came through for you. I've had nothing but good luck with them but I always worry when I recommend a vendor, carrier,
etc.,
that it will work out all right, and the recommendation will be vindicated.
