    looks like I have two leaks
    Aha... It's one of the MOST common failures, it's the clutch block and they ALL fail. Hills Engineering do a uprated replacement part and I always advise everyone to swap to it as the factory part is made of cheese! Hills is high tensile ..

    Atta boy Randy! And sorry about the clutch bloc leak. But you caught it. I trust you used dielectric grease on the Alternator power cable? And the new harness was a good idea. Mine failed last year and it was a $5K job with the battery. The new cable is uprated at the crimp.

    Also, make heat shields for your exhaust ecus if you don't already have the shielding in your panels. They are right over the exhaust and cook as result. My first diy fix on my spider.

    Nice Randy, well worth the effort to source and replace it with the High Tensile steel version that Hills engineering produced which virtually eliminates the risk of this failure happening again (Ive never heard of a single HE version failing!)...

    My recommendation for this part comes from my own use of this part on my own personal car.

    I emailed the CS registry and told them about my 360 CS conversion and sent them a link to Fchat, they replied to me the next day. I was very supersize about what they said, I would have thought they where going to be negative about the build looks like they have been watching my thread on Fchat .. here is there response to my email ...

    Very cool. I check your thread from time to time and it's very impressive what you have done. Must be one of the most extensive conversions ever done. You have basically created the 1289th Challenge Stradale :)
    I like how you even added the Scuderia shields and ofcourse the lexan windows are a very rare find! One of my friends in the Netherlands converted a 360M to full CS specs including the lexan windows and interior too.

    Maybe I can add some sort of guide how to convert a 360 to CS to my website (part of the Wiki page) with photos, part numbers and links to other conversion (like your topic on Ferrarichat).

    Best regards,
    Mike

    You're an absolute mad man in the best way possible.
    How did the Sonax alcantara cleaner go? I bought some about a year ago and never got around to testing it out. I'm always worried about matting up the alcantara fibers. They're very sensitive in these cars.

    Thanks Randy. I'm just a one guy operation though :) But I do get help from other CS enthusiasts and carspotters all around the world.

    As said, ofcourse I like your build. My registry is obviously only focussed on 'real' Stradales but I can appreciate a good conversion like yours! Well done. Enjoy her.

    CarbonDan Thanks for the compliment I only use Sonax it once on the seats you have to use natural hair bush so not to damage the Alacantara and very lightly spray maybe better to spray it and a rag and wipe clean and use the brush ..

    What is this shock ecu you speak of ? Is it a upgrade that people with 360s can do?

    I think maybe ?? I maybe the only that has upgraded shock ecu, my goal was to do every thing complete on my CS conversion , It took almost a year to cross reference every single part from the regular 360 and the CS inside and out . I know there are seven different wire harnesses looms on the CS car upper front dash under the front bonnet pedal harness F1 harness and so on, you are going from key start to push and lunch control race mode Mase enigeneering down loaded CS mapping so that would all work I know Trev would know .
