Can you make a video of you driving the 348?
We once modded the location of the AFM's, to mount directly on the throttle body, then routed the tubes from there. That corrected the AFR to nearly perfect stoichiometric & gave brilliant throttle response, efficiency gas mileage went up by 100 miles to the tank around town, low end torque is very strong & high rpm is much much stronger (it doesn't ever wanna stop pulling up on the big end just keeps on pulling until the limit) whereas before the power would plateau a good 500-1000 rpm before redline. After it just sings right on past the redline & still keeps us pegged in the seat. It also made the intake note much more bold & efficient sounding. You can now give it 1/8 the throttle input to go as fast as before when you needed the throttle 1/4. Meaning less throttle input required & far quicker & zipper performance. I Hope you can take us all for a ride after you get done with the repair! Hope you can get a spirited cruise testing out your workmanship & hear the ferrari v8 pur Oh yeah a good clean down on the AFM's would help especially remove residue around the rubber seal & the AFM seal surface. Cleaning both surfaces perfectly & mounting directly to the throttle body, with a perfect seal will give immense results. *We bought 2.5" exhaust pipe from the exhaust shop, cut to precisely the ideal length, added the PCV tube so the PCV is prior the AFM, close proximity is so key, the closer the AFM reading is to the throttle body inlet, makes such a huge difference is accuracy. Then after the AFM had pipes made specifically to couple back at the factory airbox assembly.
Wow I can't believe you did this by yourself! Amazing work.
some body to help me the crank bolt its turn left or right to pull off???
I was considering buying a 308 GTS QV. After watching your 348 videos, I am reconsidering my options. What do you think?
Thank you for doing this! I will be doing my own Engine Out next year and will be using this for reference. Keep up the good work!
excellent. did you get your 88 Esprit sorted out ?? I also have an 88 Lotus Esprit. would love to talk with you about it further. brianskeoch@bellsouth.net
Great vid – that engine cradle cart though is terrifying. You can use a motorcycle or snowmobile lift which is much 'safer', less terrifying. IMO.
is that a Miura in the reflection of the 348's door?
Looks like a Miura reflection around 44min https://youtu.be/ZQG0zQi48ck?t=43m44s
I want to recommend you convert the car back to factory. These 348's are expected to be very valuable in the near future. Some already more valuable than 355's and 360's.
You play drums and can afford a Ferrari?, give me lessons? ;)…..great videos!
