Re: 3.0 LSD indentification

My mistake guys.. My earlier post mentioned that I thought the 3.0L 75 had a 4.3:1 final drive when in fact it is more likely to be the taller 3.5:1. So if I understood everything correctly a 75TS box with 4.1:1 would be a good match in the 3.0L 75 and to then fit the LSD from the 3.0L 3.5:1 transax...

Re: 3.0 LSD indentification

Hi Kevin. I'm new to the Alfa V6 transaxle scene. I presume you are the kevin that Giuliettaevo2 was referring to in his post above. I am looking at a 3.0L 75 to buy. I have learned that the final drive ratio in the 3.0L model (4.3:1) may be too tall for performance driving use. Is it viable to swap...

I was mainly interested in the 3.0L because of the LSD diff as standard fitment. I believe that the crown wheel and pinion gears may also have a bigger surface area in the LSD transmissions. I figured that might also be a better option in the punishing environment on the race circuit. I had also hea...

Re: 3.0 LSD indentification

Hi and thanks for your reply. I am not looking for a full competition car but I was thinking of using a 3.0L for club sprints etc as well as my daily drive car. Is it possible to swap the final drive crown wheel and pinion out of a 2.5L LSD transmission into the 3.0L unit to reduce the ratio?. I gue...

3.0 LSD indentification

Hi members. Is any one able to advise me how to confirm if an Alfa 75 3.0 might have a LSD fitted. I believe that all of the 3.0L models and 1.8T's came standard with the LSD but I'm hoping there is a way of checking without having to open the side of the transmission. Next question, are there any d...
