Leaking Head Gasket... the Larini headers were just a good opportunity once the engine is out.
But they should be delivered now, almost 8 weeks since I ordererd them, but you know when you ask they will arrive the next morning...

You have to know how to remove special things, for example the 4 screws of the central engine mount. three screws you can access through a little opening in the side wall, the fourth you have to come from the gearbox and put your arm along the oilsump.

I can tell you it was an adventure, for installing we will be better prepared, now we know the traps... One was the water hose for the heating at the firewall.

When Frank Sinatra got his Miura S in 1970, he said: “If you wanna be someone, buy Ferrari - If you are someone, you own a Lamborghini”.
