I think the story of the SZ should be, that the brakes heat up the gearbox(\oil) too much.

However, for a race Alfa, this is not the way I'd choose. I would propose to keep the AR bars decent and use rather stiff springs. Front as well as rear. Micke, I think in theory you are right; an AR bar just takes away grip from one (the inside of the corner) wheel... My theory ( I know thin ice :...

Here excactly done as Micke said on the car. Cut at the sides and welded with a set rim to measure from. Goal was from memory 2.5 deg camber and 2 mm toe in.

This is engine modifying stuff is all new to me, would love some input on how to calculate this kind of stuff! (a theoretical book, I know I'm asking for trouble :wink: )

"and take two original TS TB's" And this you don't call a killer??? :lol: Your cams are for a killer, mine for a snipers. Also low budget here, this is what I've got laying around, but probably a V6 tb (3.0 vs 2.0) would provide enough air). Hmmm thinking of it I've got also a spare motro...
