I one hundred percent understand how difficult it is to film and work on a customer's car. The job is complicated and takes all of your focus to make sure everything is perfect.
Welcome back! Think most people here understand you are a mechanic first and that youtube falls lower on the list. Not everyone has a Mrs Wizard to be a editor
Good on you Danielson these videos you show no matter how interrupted they are still shows us your great workmanship...We get to see other great builds so it's fine...TH-cam isn't going to fix these jobs but you are so no need to explain...Thank you
What a well produced. Well done video. With just the right time lapses to maintain a great pace. I especially enjoyed the non apoplectic description of what working on an intense Tettarossa is like while working in the shop. 👍
I didn't know there was a date code on timing belts. Thanks for that! That idler pulley was bad!! You saved the owner 48 valves and 12 pistons! I've enjoyed your Testarossa videos.
Honestly, I don't know how you do it.... keep your mind focused on all the persnickety little steps involved AND talk to us. I couldn't do it. I'd probably just set up a camera... and then narrate over a time lapse or something. Of course, I don't look so good on camera... so... yeah. Nice job... sounds good. Those Ferrari engines are something special!
I would love to hear how you got into Ferrari Maintenance. I had a 99 F355 Spyder 6SP, I did all the maintenance myself. I got tired of the Electrical crap with the turn signals and tail lights plus the car started to rocket in Value. I got the car at 16K miles and drove it until 30K than sold it for 13K Profit.
Really enjoy your videos, thank you for filming what you can! I'm a 6 year tech and know the difficulty to some extent of these projects and really respect the level of workmanship and pride and I aspire to be just as good as you and the whole team there at omega one day!
I really enjoyed this episode and I look forward to more of your videos! I certainly understand why you couldn’t film the entire process. I respect your dedication to doing a great job and I’m sure your clients do too! Please keep up the great work! FWIW, the birds singing was actually pretty neat and not distracting to me.
Hoovies Testarossa Video brought me here. The name sounded familiar, as i've heard the car wizard talk about you a couple of times on his channel. Didn't know you had one of your own, too. I'm glad i found the channel i think this is really interesting!
The Geek in me wishes you were set up to record every second of the work on that very rare and exotic engine. It would have been epic. But we get that it's tough to get your own YT channel to the point of having professional recording gear and even dedicated help. Thanks for sharing what you were able to! 👍
Still a good video. You have good skills and the right attitude. I hate mechanics that don't clean parts before or after doing a repair. That smacks of lazyness to me. I liked that you spend a few extra minutes to clean those parts! I would take my Scud to you for service anyday, but I'm about 2000 miles away! Good Luck!
I must say that I like horizontally opposed engines. I have a '14 Porsche Cayman S with the MA 123 version of their 9A1 family of boxer flat 6 engines with 3.4 liters, and my work car is an '01 Subaru Outback LL Bean with the EZ30D 3.0 liter boxer flat six. The Cayman S is faster than I am and has an almost light airplane like rumble at idle courtesy of the Belgian Carnewal-Cantrell exhaust. The Subaru? I can balance a nickel on edge on the plastic engine cover while the engine idles and it won't fall over. 217 hp versus 3800 pounds does not make a fast car, but it is very smooth. Even with 23 year old engine mounts I have to look at the tach to tell if it is running; boxer designs tend to be that way since all piston forces cancel out. I have always found the Ferrari 180 degree V12 to be utterly fascinating! This non-boxer engine should have been used in other cars. I guess the problem is that Ferrari couldn't find a way to fit it in the front of a car (Despite the fact that Subaru was able to do just that....) and that limited its use to mid engine mountings. Great video!
Little project?…a little project for me is putting a new spark plug in my lawnmower not an engine removal from a Ferrari. Guess for you it’s just another day at the office.
Danial.....I would like to have seen one shot of the car running and you driving doing one acceleration....Like one of those almost to the limit.......Buy a freaking suction cup or borrow Hoovies......
-The only real problem with this car and what has kept me away from buying one (this and the inflated price these days....) is the fact that this car has Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection. This was a great idea by Bosch in the 1970's and it is a purely mechanical system that works fantastically. As long as no dirt or water gets to it! Instead of injectors that are pulsed open and closed by electrical signals from an ECU, this system simply has nozzles in the ports. When fuel pressure reaches the injector, they open and spray, purely mechanical, there is no electrical connection at the injector. Fuel mixture is determined in a central fuel distributor. When more air moves toward the cylinders, a flap in the intake is deflected and this moves a valve that sends more fuel. BUT, when you open a valve, pressure drops; To prevent this, the system has a set of regulating plates at each injection hose that move to restore this pressure, so no matter what the throttle plate does, the pressure at the injection tips is always the same. BUT of course there are times when you don't want fuel mixture to be determined by that air flap. Thus, the valve has two sides: The side that sends fuel to the injectors and the side that modifies the position of this valve. This is called "control pressure", and it has its own regulator. I first learned about this system in 1984 when I bought my first car at the age of 18, a '77 Volkswagen Rabbit. Bali green four speed, me and my dad sat down and went through the manual to learn about this car. -Now this is less than funny; My dad drove an '80 Chevette at the time with a cruddy TH200 automatic transmission. Suddenly, I would walk out into the driveway during the last months of my senior year in High School and my Rabbit would be missing, but dad's Chevette would be there. I got his keys and drove his car to school, and when he got home from his engineering job at Detroit Edison, he would park my car in the driveway and "Well, I thought I would....Well I was wondering if...Well I thought I smelt coolant". Never "Well, I just like your car more than my own pile of shit!" Here's the thing: This girl named Jeanette Toparcean went to my school and I didn't like her. At all. She was really cute, but I couldn't stand her attitude, and that got around to her. I parked my Rabbit at someone's house during a party and she poured most of a bottle of Mountain Dew into my gas tank. You know, one of those two liter bottles... It totally fucked the fuel injection. I had to replace four injectors and the fuel distributor, which was a LOT of money. I confronted said cunnus on Facebook about 10 years ago and simply asked her to apologize publicly. She wouldn't do it. Women have two sets of teeth; Guess where they keep the other set....

Yeah, I'd like to see more details but your first job is being a mechanic. The world needs more good mechanics than it does good youtubers so I think you have the balance right.
i just watched previous video with " speed handle " . i left you a message about my friend the speed handle you may like ..... sorry i thought i was leaving it on this video .

hey you are working to make money and make customers happy. getting to see it on video is just a bonus.
Your Ferrari level of expertise located in the middle of America is commendable.
Fantastic Video... don't worry about how little or how much you film, its just great to see some of the work you do on the Prancing horse!
he is alive and back! - he does exist - hope all is well
A timelapse is perfectly fine, what matters is that the car is done and running fantastically!
I am glad you did film
Good on you Danielson these videos you show no matter how interrupted they are still shows us your great workmanship...We get to see other great builds so it's fine...TH-cam isn't going to fix these jobs but you are so no need to explain...Thank you
Good job. I think it's great that you're putting video's out. Keep it up. There are some of us who really enjoy your content.
bad ass car my favorite “classic” car
AWESOME TO WATCH !!!!!!
What a well produced. Well done video. With just the right time lapses to maintain a great pace. I especially enjoyed the non apoplectic description of what working on an intense Tettarossa is like while working in the shop. 👍
I’m a TR owner and I really enjoyed this, and learned a lot. Thanks. Whatever you have time to film, I appreciate.
Always enjoy video of a legendary car
I didn't know there was a date code on timing belts. Thanks for that! That idler pulley was bad!! You saved the owner 48 valves and 12 pistons! I've enjoyed your Testarossa videos.
WAY beyond my skills. Good work brother.
WELL DONE!

Hang in there!!! The successful TH-camrs highspeed through the mundane and real time in highlights ;)
Good to see you back!
That Ferrari is so awesome!❤
Great job Daniel-San!
Well Done🎉
Having only worked on 50's, 60's and 70's domestics, and a couple of TR4's, this is real interesting.
A great video - a very good show and tell
Must be a real thrill to work on and be trusted with a supercar engine!
Yesssirrrrrr
So did you replace that chewed-up plastic backing plate behind the timing gear ? Or was the damage not important ?
Impressive work.
Thanks
I appreciate the focus on your employer and customer rather than filming. It shows good character.
YOU’RE BACK !

What happened to the Fiat 124 turbo project? You got is running but haven't installed the turbo.
Good to see you
Great video. Please make more if you can

I love the Scuds!!!
Another awesome video, thanks for sharing! Curious... roughly (+ or - 20%) would you say those parts cost? Thanks!
$10k…. I think. 🤔

Well done you are an asset to omega hope the wizard looks after you big shout out from New Zealand
Did you replace the plastic shield?

How did I not know Ferrari had a horizontally opposed engine?
They were using it in F1, and were inspired to try it in a road car.
Great video. How many hours did it take you?
just buy a Panasonic HC-VX980
You can put it on a tripod
Hours of video no problem

Green Coolant seems odd for all aluminum engine. Shouldn’t it be blue or yellow?😊
Green is not the right coolant, I flushed the system and put in the correct one.

Maybe but a cheap GoPro and do some pov footage?
The stock exhaust is lame on these. Love the video tho!
Fart at 6.56 😂
i just watched previous video with " speed handle " . i left you a message about my friend the speed handle you may like ..... sorry i thought i was leaving it on this video .
It must get annoying trying to concentrate on a customer car while filming at the same time.
