Ferrari 365 GTC

This engine started out as a “check it out and let me know” inspection. It had been totally rebuilt by a well known restoration shop, but was running poorly. After much probing, the compression was low, carbs jetted too rich and it burnt oil; this after only

2K miles! Later, it was found that the compression height on the piston was incorrect causing the C.R. to be 8:1. The rings hadn’t seated due to the overly rich condition causing the oil burning. We rebuilt the engine, fixing all of these issues (and many others) to produce a better then original result with substantially more torque.
