Ferrari Mailing List: 512 TR engine swap

[clyde romero (clyderomerof4]

ok guys this is lessons learned on this still evolving project

Ferrari tends to update stuff and never say anything until you get the new part!

So always have a parts book

The service manual is shit when it comes to how things are to go where

The parts manual has the real story

Take plenty of pictures of the unit before you start taking it all apart

When it comes to seals

Expect upgrades and save the old ones so when you get the new ones you know you have the correct part!

Don’t ask me how I know

My car had over 100k on it and it ran

I decided to put in a new clutch and throw-out bearing assembly

Along with a new flywheel

Yes I have plenty of pictures of the job in different stages

Also for those of you on Ferrari Chat

Do you think they would be interested in this job on that forum?

That’s it for now

Going back to the PIT!

 

 

In victory you deserve Champagne

In defeat you need it!

 

   

 

 

Scars are tattoos with better stories!
