NA Rebuild - Exhaust Heatshield Rattle - Repair

Engine Rebuild - Let's start - Part #1

E' arrivato il momento di iniziare un impresa titanica per me che non l'ho mai fatto, ma sempre per imparare, ho deciso di rebuildare il motore della miatina... E' sempre stato un po' fiacco, inoltre necessitava di numerosi interventi: Distribuzione e pompa acqua (rumorosa), Frizione (Slittava molto a caldo in pista), Paraolii valvole (fumava blu parecchio in rilascio), Paraolii albero motore e cambio (perdevano copiosamente), Testa che trasudava un po di olio, inoltre guardando nel tappo olio del coperchio punterie, si intravedeva un bel nero, indice di scarsi cambi olio di uno dei precedenti proprietari.

NA Rebuild - OMP Seat Bracket mod for Sparco SprintV

Here, how i've modded the OMP seat bracket to fit a Sparco SprintV seat to the driver side. I've done other holes to have the lowest seat position. Finding the correct distance/inclination of seat, has been very complicated, before doing final holes!
