Hi Jes, Just saw your post. Did you get your balance bar setup installed? I was wondering what master cylinder sizes you ended up with. I did some calculations but really dont know the real CG height or braking G-force. Ive machine up a system that fits (barely) within the ABS housing and hope to do...

Anyone know if how Jarles headers performed? Looked like a great design but I didnt see any posts for the results.

Lloyd ???? I had two of those when I was a kid. Picked them up for 20 bucks each in a central Texas junk yard! Out foxed a DPS trooper in one of them too once! Never seen one since.

Those are metric RPMs, its about 5840 imperial RPM

Greg, beautiful rods sir! Can you steer rod purchasers to a v6 balance man worthy of them?

Inspired by this thread I converted my 3.0 milano over to manual steering this weekend. The results...steers a bit like a truck at low speed but thats with the 205 15 track tires. Hopefully street tires will be easier. I liked the idea of eliminating the spool valve play but instead of welding the f...

On the question a few post back concerning shorting shock rods A way to shorten them without damage would be to drill and tap a piece of bar stock in the lathe to accept shock rod. With rod screwed into threaded bar stock it would be easy to cut threads in a new location. Finish by cutting off old r...

I call those the stub axles. Four bolts to remove from diff case. There is a press on ring wich holds the bearing and housing in place. You really need a press and bearing extractor plate to support bearing cap while pressing on splined end of stub shaft. . Heating the ring with a torch will help bu...

Did the Alfettas have four gears like the milano diff?

Here is a picture of the destroyed spider gear and shaft. First time Ive ever seen this in an alfa. Looks like someone was doing drag starts or donuts or something. You cant really see it in the picture but the solid gear has two hairline cracks through it. So do the other two gears not shown. Im wo...

Recently I rebuilt a milano tranaxle and did some extensive gear lightening along with swapping in two extra plates in the lsd. Life was good for about 3 or 4 weeks then the diff started making awful bangs going around tight corners. One of the spider gears had broke into 8 pieces and its shaft had ...

All my stuff is old
ok.

Hi James, did you get you box together ok. Im starting to slap some gear on the ole lathe and wondered how your box held up.

Cant post html but here is a snippet of rbc's chart for some of their bearings. The last three columns are: static radial, static thrust, dynamic radial in kN. 1 kN is about 224 lbf. So, if we say the car has 800 lbs per corner 8*800=6400. MBH1720: 31 kN dynamic radial = 6969lbf. this bearing has a ...

They have a derating chart on a pdf but its kind of blurry and hard to read. need t o print it out. Looks roughly like dynamic thrust is 25% of static. Still within range . If your really worried they also list double angular contact bearings that can handle the entire car without breaking a sweat. ...
