Just wanted to say hello to everybody. I recognize quite a few names here already. Hopefully I can help out here wherever I can.

Thanks for all the "welcomes" !
I've already found out, Andrew is a great guy to deal with in running this site. I never had too much problem with the other site other than a certain mod (one guess who) and the "you need us more than we need you" attitude of the Hitler youth there.
This is for sure a friendlier place with alot less stress.
Like I said before, I'll try to help out around here when I can. I'm by no means an all knowing Ferrari expert, but I do have a ton of engine building experience and don't mind sharing when I can.

Pretty cool. I'm currently working on my dyno, setting it up to do Ferrari stuff. The plan is to get some baseline numbers on a 355 engine, then test some different electrical things, then move on to testing my head porting improvements, my pistons/rings and engine coatings.
I've had all types of different engines on it, anything from a stock rebuilt '53 Vette Blue Flame six cyl. to a Modified Pinto engine I did that set a speed record at Bonneville to 786 cu in IHRA drag race engines.
Hopefully it'll be ready to do some 355 testing in Jan.
