In Part 2 of my Ferrari 456/456GTA Major Service series, I begin tearing down the V12 to prepare for the timing belt replacement. This video covers the full disassembly process and the critical steps needed before setting cam timing.

What I cover:
• Removing air boxes, intake ducting, and ancillary belts
• Pulling the timing belt covers
• Removing the intake manifold
• Valve cover removal and valve lash inspection
• Setting valve lash to the correct spec for cam timing
• Tips, tricks, and common 456 pitfalls to avoid

If you own a Ferrari 456, are planning a timing belt service, or want to understand what proper Ferrari V12 maintenance looks like, this video gives you a clear look at the real process behind a correct major service.

Next up: cam timing, degreeing the cams, and installing the new belts.

If you own a 456, are shopping for one, or simply enjoy deep technical dives into classic Ferrari service work, this series will give you an inside look at the exact process I use in my shop.

Thanks for watching and spending time in the shop with me.
