Ferrari Mailing List: Re: TR question and please Clyde,do not kill me!

[clyde romero (clyderomero]

I agree with all that was said here. If the car has the new 512M carrier
then all is well in mudville.

However cycle the gear box and see if all the syncro?s are working properly.

Usually 2nd and 5th gear syncros go first on the TR?s to include 512?s.

I plan on doing my gear box on the next major service and seeing if it in
fact has the upgrade.

In theory you can remove the left side plate from the transaxle cover and
see if you have the upgraded 512 M transaxle carrier on your car. A parts
book is very helpful in showing what is what in the gearbox.

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?
