I've got one on my gtv6 with the international auto "spintech" muffler. To me it sounds great but it is quite brassy at about 3k rpm. which in my car is right at cruising speed at 80mph. I've got the 4.10 rear end. above that point it really screams and the brassiness goes away. but it is ...

Rear wheel drive with a front mount box so you can actualy go racing with a motor over 300hp and not worried which corner the crown and pinion is going to strip . Even the colloti boxes did not last with hollow shafts and oil sprayers on a big bore 3.7 race cars. Ferrari, Maserati and come to think...

Awesome..... that track looks like so much fun. especially the downhill section with the right hander at the bottom.

sorry didn't mean to be disgusting. i'll make up for it with some better pics. here are a couple from last years vintage car races at our new racetrack miller motorsports park. the first is my 2 yr old son in a gt40 mk4. then a McClaren M8 Can Am car. that place is huge. 4 1/2 miles long! and i'll a...

I might be wrong, but I don't think you can legally place a Ford Escort next to a Ferrari........even in pictures

ha ha! I'm not the one that asked for escort pics

woo hoo! Thanks so much Jim! thats ok about the book i guess, the GTV6 is going to be a long term project. I've got my 164S (not the donor car) to drive every day.

Hi, been lurking on this ste for about 8 months now and have learned alot. there must be something wrong with me because i just purchased my second alfa, an 81 GTV6. the car is in good condition (i.e. very little rust) but not so nice that it needs to be kept in perfect original condition. so on the...

the qp chassis has what is called a front mid engine layout where the entire engine is behind the front wheel centerline. also the engine is set very low. this gives the car fanastic balance when used in conjuction with the rear transaxle. anyway the steering rack then needs to be placed farther for...

well after peeking under a qp that i've got on my hoist i'd say that the suspension is virtually identical and that the 8c is probably on a shortened qp chassis like the upcoming new maserati coupe. which in itself is good news b/c the qp has one fantastic chassis. in any case that would mean that t...

Hi, first post, long time lurker. if you look closly the lower spring perch is actually above the upper a arm. very similar to the current maserati qp, with very long shock bodies. sorry, no torsion bars on the 8c.
