A Little Money Saving Tip

If you ever need some of those plastic fasteners ( what I call push pins) that hold various parts of the car together , try Lowes. I picked up two packages at an O'Reilly's the other day that cost $8 and some change. One package had two in it and the other one had four. I later went by Lowes and fou...

Re: Lightened Flywheel

I ended up milling almost a pound off the flywheel. I then had it balanced. The 4:08 final drive set won't fit my transmission I found out. The final drive in a Sport is 3:73 which is different from a Pop or Abarth from what I've read.

Re: What did you do to your Fiat lately ?

Yesterday after three tries we got a service manual to down load. After studying the pictures for a while I figured out my shift cable problem. I couldn't find any text that dealt with my problem. I was getting in and out of the car trying the shifter after some adjustments. Just out of habit I push...

Re: Replacing a Transmission / Axle Bearing

Bryan is working with Clutchmasters on building a clutch for it I believe . I'm waiting on a LSD to be made in Italy that will fit it.

Re: What did you do to your Fiat lately ?

Then I got two emails saying I had two manuals coming. So I called them and canceled one order. I tol...

Re: What did you do to your Fiat lately ?

I called today and the lady said the order had been canceled .She didn't know why and would call shipping an...

Re: What did you do to your Fiat lately ?

If I have any chance of making Twisted I'll have to put the OEM clutch back in today. I need it together and some miles on it before I head out on a nine hour road trip followed by two days of full throttle fun.
