Another high-quality job done by the NGS crew! Now, if you could get a certain Ferrari mechanic over to add a lot more quacks to your videos, you guys could get really really good! 😂😂
I may give you guys some crap, from tie to time, but I'm impressed with your ability to tackle most projects that would make many pucker up and cry - well done
Hi Dan, Just info. The hose can stay on, just undo it from the box. The cover then can wiggle free to your right side towards you. Just fits through. Saves a lot of messing around with coolant… I did the same actually today on my 360. belt service…yeah…😬
The 360 is sweet. I drove one a few years back... and I am in lust.. so sexy. I wish it had been a manual... still, felt like a 4 wheel Superbike. That 8500 RPM red line is intoxicating.
There are only a handful of independent Ferrari shops here in Northern & Southern California that do maintenance work and probably would not take on a gated conversion. You should be proud.
@@normalguysupercar I'm looking at a mint F430 over here in Ireland.. ill send ye a video of it.. only 8k miles... tks to ye, I have a good idea what to look for 🏆
Youve come quite a ways Dan. Master Ferrari mechanic soon! I actually enjoy your DIY skills so dont succumb to the haters or geniuses and edit out your work ie belt change in this case.
Dan, I know what you did wrong on the timing belts............................................. you didn't video it. LOL You're certaining doing a great job unpimping the 360. I liked how you showed a close up of the shift mechanism at the trans.
Before I type this, I do want you to know that I’m not telling you what to do. I don’t want it to come across that way. You already know what you are doing and therefore own a successful business. We both have nothing to prove. Ok. With that said, some things. You’ve got a helluva nice garage and tools. Buy the HE flywheel lock tool to use from now on. You know that won’t be your last 360 timing belt change. 😉 Also, you should try and check the actual timing of each cam and adjust it to spec with the new belt. The exhaust cams can easily be checked with your reader after it is back together. Better to do it before with dial gauges. The intake cams are harder and you can only check them with dial gauges. You’d be amazed how off they can become after 20 years of just lock and swaps at even Ferrari dealerships. Get this….all 4 of mine were in the far ends of spec and the exhaust cams were 3° off bank to bank. Should 0°. My intake cams were 4° off bank to bank. Freaking crazy! Anyways, good job with the transformation.
Great video and historical edits/cuts at the beginning of the depimping. Like others have said, would love to see how ur painter fixes the the roof and pillars if that opportunity presents. I miss the ugga duggas and gut and tight torque specs…😂. Always enjoyed seeing u solve ‘areas of concern’ that pop up!…regardless of the haters. All the best!
I'm sure Ferrari makes a really expensive flywheel holding tool you can buy to keep the crank from turning while removing/tightening the crank pulley bolt.
Dan, I was hoping to see the full belt install; sorry to hear about criticism discouraging that. The access looks fantastic for a fairly enjoyable job. What are your thoughts? Also thank you for depimping the car. It looked like a prototypical C8 decked out with a JC Whitney shopping spree.
OMG SOOO MUCH BETTER!!!🎉🍻 Wish I could buy it. Perfect drivers car! Now that yall are getting the conversions down, I'm gonn have to bring the ol' F430 up one day, soon as I'm ready!💰💰🕹️
Dan screw the haters, if you do not have anything nice to say keep you mouth shut. Thank You for the content Dan, so how much does a timing belt service generally cost on a ferrari? Again you guys rock!
Is there any good way to inspect the heat exchanger w/o removing the intake? The aged ones are going to fail and mix coolant/oil which of course as you know will grenade the gearbox, not sure what the current state of tech / or way to be proactive about the heat exchanger outside proactively swapping it
Nice work! completely different car now! Did you trip the airbag light starting it with the seats out? What tool did you use to reset it? Just did this on mine (first time changing belts)....tried to be careful, and of course caused an issue!
Isn't it a pain in the ass to get that battery in and out? Would an Antigravity battery be a better option, especially since it can remote jump start itself if you neglect to put it on a charger?
You guys ever worry about future repercussions for the work you did as far as not being a licensed repair shop or licensed technicians? Asking since these cars are for resale. Appreciate the content!
Hey I'm about ready to have a shot in my spine and I saw your video from 5 years ago but I don't know what happened after your shot? Did the shot help or did you have to have surgery again question mark
Is it normal to have a slight throttle hesitation when gently reving within the the first 10 mins of startup? The response becomes sharp after the engine is warm
@@normalguysupercar Oh come on Dan, Apple owners aren’t THAT bad….The Apple community will welcome you with open arms should you ever change your mind.😂😂😂
Josh, my former neighbor, a retired college prof, bought a Tesla. The first time that he showed it to me, I told him to rev it up. Let me hear it! Went over his head.

Great job guy's well done
Thank you
Hey Dan thanks for the keychain that you sent with the armrest.
Haha you're welcome

Thanks
Nice work gents! Glorious transformation. I really enjoy this content. You can replace my timing belts anytime!
Ugh. Timing belts. Lol
Hi Dan,
Just info.
The hose can stay on, just undo it from the box. The cover then can wiggle free to your right side towards you. Just fits through. Saves a lot of messing around with coolant…
I did the same actually today on my 360. belt service…yeah…😬
I figured changing it the coolant would be good to do anyways
It could use some curb feelers but otherwise outstanding work!
Lol
The 360 is sweet. I drove one a few years back... and I am in lust.. so sexy. I wish it had been a manual... still, felt like a 4 wheel Superbike. That 8500 RPM red line is intoxicating.
Heck yeah
great work mate!! soon as i win the lotto, will be heading your way
Haha thanks

Thanks! I am!
11:07 "Check it out" 😂 your laughter is genuine and contagious 😅
Haha thanks
Love your work guys.. 🎉
Thank you 🙌
@@normalguysupercar I'm looking at a mint F430 over here in Ireland.. ill send ye a video of it.. only 8k miles... tks to ye, I have a good idea what to look for 🏆
I love how Dan and Josh make sure the car is near perfect before it leaves their shop to a new owner
Youve come quite a ways Dan. Master Ferrari mechanic soon! I actually enjoy your DIY skills so dont succumb to the haters or geniuses and edit out your work ie belt change in this case.
Indeed thanks

Great work guys and man that thing looked bad pimped out! Hard to imagine what people are thinking, so much better without any of that junk on it 👍
Thanks 👍
Great job. That thing was oogly when y'all first got it. Now it looks like an actual Ferrari.
It looks really nice. Can't wait to see it with the roof repainted

Like the way, you go through cars before you resell them. :)
Thanks
Congrats on the successful de-pimping! Looks great!
Thank you!

Yeah
Good job 👍

Hill engineering does. I'm not spending $400 when the $5 extension works. 😁
Great work guys !!!
Thank you
Dan that wing is straight money! lol
Haha thank you
Yep. May have to do mine
Yup
Dan, I was hoping to see the full belt install; sorry to hear about criticism discouraging that. The access looks fantastic for a fairly enjoyable job. What are your thoughts?
Also thank you for depimping the car. It looked like a prototypical C8 decked out with a JC Whitney shopping spree.
Haha the pimping was horrible

Anytime

A simple belt device like that is usually in the $3k range plus or minus
Is there any good way to inspect the heat exchanger w/o removing the intake? The aged ones are going to fail and mix coolant/oil which of course as you know will grenade the gearbox, not sure what the current state of tech / or way to be proactive about the heat exchanger outside proactively swapping it
I'm not sure honestly but being proactive and changing it every decade or so is a good idea. Plus changing the coolant every major or so.
Good work Dan....When I am in the market for a ferrari, I will contact you. Right now I am enjoying my 911 turbo s.
Appreciate it
You guys are amazing
Thanks
Wrenching on my Ferrari this morning. What is 10k ugga-duggas when converted to metric?
5 Queen's Arses.
😂😂😂😠😉
King's Arses. We have a new monarch!@@normalguysupercar
Can u guys air your fixing of the bubbling airbag cover? And how to do it?
Sure
Imagine the timing belt service mistakes? Jokes on you.....I imagined that you did everything right and it turned out great!
Dang. Lol
Reduce liability by doing belt service in-house & manual conversion it’s all good thorough maintenance. Good Seller imho
Thanks
Dan, you were supposed to be doing in underwater while basket weaving! ;)
Oh damn
Nice work! completely different car now! Did you trip the airbag light starting it with the seats out? What tool did you use to reset it? Just did this on mine (first time changing belts)....tried to be careful, and of course caused an issue!
Na it was fine.
Great job gentlemen. I use that term loosely. 😂
That's acceptable
Honestly, I kinda liked it the way it was. Except I would’ve had Ferrari sticker along the door like you see Porsche.
Lordy
The way it was would be okay as long as you wore a Ferrari hat and jacket while driving it.
@@ducknorris233and Ferrari shoes
Shoes or wristbands
Underwear and socks….
Isn't it a pain in the ass to get that battery in and out? Would an Antigravity battery be a better option, especially since it can remote jump start itself if you neglect to put it on a charger?
Yes
Nice work whats up w the passenger side dash airbag cover?
That's pretty common. The leather shrinks and comes unglued.
You guys ever worry about future repercussions for the work you did as far as not being a licensed repair shop or licensed technicians? Asking since these cars are for resale. Appreciate the content!
Nope. We sell them as is.
What is that tiny round mirror on the mirror? That can't be stock?
It's not. We need to remove it still
Would you do such a conversion on a Canadian car in Canada ?
I suppose so?
who does your theme sound...sweet
I honestly didn't even know
Hey I'm about ready to have a shot in my spine and I saw your video from 5 years ago but I don't know what happened after your shot? Did the shot help or did you have to have surgery again question mark
It helped. I only had to have the 1 surgery.
@@normalguysupercarTHANK YOU!
So, what's the coolest exhaust for a 360? Capristo? Nouvalari? Tubi?
I like the s-line. Josh likes the Capristo
Is it normal to have a slight throttle hesitation when gently reving within the the first 10 mins of startup? The response becomes sharp after the engine is warm
Hmm, not really. Only within the first minute or 2.
Hmm well I’m changing all coils and doing a major service hopefully it goes away
And I agree with belt services making me nervous lol
Is this essentially an Automatic car with a manual gear shift to select the gears/accurate the clutch?
No it's now a full manual with a clutch pedal.
@12:00 that statement right there is my issue: Tesla owners. Nothing against the car. Same with Apple.
I love my Mac, my iPhone, my two iPads and my iWatch.
I hate Apple
@@normalguysupercar Oh come on Dan, Apple owners aren’t THAT bad….The Apple community will welcome you with open arms should you ever change your mind.😂😂😂
Sometimes you gotta have a project like that, to appreciate the easier “hard ones” 😅
Yup
Josh, my former neighbor, a retired college prof, bought a Tesla. The first time that he showed it to me, I told him to rev it up. Let me hear it! Went over his head.
Lol nice
how would you tighten the serpentine belt if necessary easily accessible generator bracket adjustment like normal car?
There's a nut underneath you use to tighten it
which cartel did you get that thing from?
The snowbirds of Florida Mafia
Please god make a shirt that says, “ my Ferrari is un-pimped” ❤❤❤❤😂
Lol
Good job saving that beautiful car. It was ridicules what the previous owner did to it.
Yes indeed
If I buy a car, can I have a hug?
Sure?
@@normalguysupercar careful, it always starts with just a hug.....
@@normalguysupercarWoohoo, 360 here I come
Well, sh!t. I’m sorry the know it all internet mechanics are spoiling it for the rest of us.
Yup. I'm just tired.
The only thing this car needs is fuzzy dice and a Playboy air freshener.
Ha
OMG everyone knows you're supposed to lube the belts with low-hydration pee before installing them how could you miss that step? Geez man. 🤪🤪
Ah I used high hydration pee.... Dang
@@normalguysupercar RIP that engine. Car's worth like eleventy dollars only now. :P
Thats a lot of “uggaduggas” 😅
Lol yup
What the actual fook was the previous owner thinking?!? That would certainly be an interesting story!
It's insane
it looked sexy as hell before with stickers, etc.... your just jealous previous owners vision..lol
Yes. Very jealous
Great job, very impressive.
Thank you! Cheers!
