Will the Capristo tensioner bearings for classic Ferrari models fit my car?

Yes, if your car is listed in Applications: the 288 GTO, 308 GT4, 308 GTB and GTS in carbureted, injected and QV form, 328, 365 GT4 BB, 512 BB and BBi, F40, or Mondial 8, QV and 3.2. The F355 uses a different Capristo bearing. contact us if your model is not listed.

How many bearings are included?

Two tensioner bearings are included, sold as a set of two. Engines differ in how many belt tensioners they use, so confirm the number of tensioners on your engine with your Ferrari specialist before ordering, then order one set for every two bearings your service requires.

What makes the Capristo bearings different from OEM?

Capristo packs its tensioner bearings for classic Ferrari engines with a special extreme-pressure grease with a very high knock-out rating. That grease is chosen to give the bearing a longer service life than the available OEM part, which matters on a component the timing belt depends on.

Should I replace the bearings during a timing belt service?

Yes, replacing the tensioner bearings while the timing belts are off is common practice, because the labor to reach them is already being done. Fitting fresh bearings with new belts means the tensioners and belts start their service life together on an engine that is expensive to repair.

Can I install these myself?

Timing belt work on classic Ferrari engines requires specialist tools and knowledge, and an error can cause serious engine damage. Professional installation by a Ferrari specialist is recommended. Bulletproof Automotive can help confirm the right parts before your service is booked.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
