Re: GTE Motor Mounts help

Thanks Tom
Is the spacer a steel washer? What thickness? FYI 2831 will be run on bench test/dyno tomorrow - first time running in 10 years!

GTE Motor Mounts help

I am not sure if there are any spacers or bushings needed for Series 1 GTE engine mounts. I recall a post from Tom from 2015 for a Blue Series 1 330 - he made some teflon bushings which added 10mm in height to rear mount. What about front mounts? Help!

Re: 250 seat/ball bearings

My seats are early type - do you think I'll have to machine new ones? Can somebody give dimensions of early roller type please?

250 seat/ball bearings

At present my front seats are very hard to adjust for fore and aft. I recall in the past there being some ball bearings between the mounting plate and the chair rail to reduce friction and ease adjustment. Can somebody shed some light on this - size, number of bearings ?
Thanks

Re: What/who is Bertolli ?

Thanks. I was also told when we got the car in the early 80s that it came thru Ron Tonkin (it had Ron Tonkin licence plate frame as well) but when contacted they said that 2831 had not been in their "books".

What/who is Bertolli ?

I noticed on the Barchetta site that info on my GTE 2831 is limited to Bertolli, I.
Would this be the first owner or the name of an Italian Ferrari dealer? I = Italia?
If it was delivered to an Italian owner why do I have miles per hour speedo?

Re: Fitting 205VR15 CN72 HS Cinturatos to a GTE

OK - no response yet... and I really need to get going on this.
Any Lusso owners fitted 185 80 15s on 3801s? I used to have a Lusso but can't remember what I used.
Thanks

Fitting 205VR15 CN72 HS Cinturatos to a GTE

Has anybody fitted this size tire to their GTE- 205VR15 CN72 HS Cinturato? I know the OE size is the 185VR15 CA56 Cinturato but I have a spare set of wider 3801 Borannis which could take the CN72s. I read somewhere that 330 Americas had 3801s and were fitted with the CN72s. I don't think Americas ha...
