156 Intake plenum and 45mm runners for GTV6/75 24V

$500 shipped or reasonable offer

Selling my 156 intake setup. Includes plenum, runners, hoses, clamps, but NO THROTTLE BODY. FYI,some vendors are asking for £400 just for a set of new runners. Ridiculous price IMHO, but it is what it is. Welding on the plenum is ok, no superb.

Re: Building the supercharger to the engine (75 3.0V6)

Here is a crude VVT system. Dual pulley so the tension is maintained.

Re: Building the supercharger to the engine (75 3.0V6)

Hans already sold the car to a Norwegian guy I think. Regardless, that 75 was a beast!

For idle can you adjust injector end angle or phasing with the EFI you have? In some cases it has helped idle quality and response. I will do that this weekend.

Re: Buying new fuel injectors

I dunno about NL, but get eBay is where I get everything. Make sure they don't sell you cheap **** from China. Five-0 Motorsports is also on eBay. I hate those GTV6 style injectors, I prefer the 164 style with the barb adapters. More selection,

Re: Building the supercharger to the engine (75 3.0V6)

Whose supercharged 75? Is it the red one from Norway or the one Mende (DK) built and sold to someone in Taiwan?

Why would idle be difficult for your car? Aren't your cams mild?

Oh yeah? JK claims that he is a better chick magnet than even the best oil plug magnet. Although you kinda wonder....oil plug magnets usually attract a lot of crap :mrgreen:

Re: Video you don't wanna see

Yes, Jordan Cox is really good. He drives the EG9 Civic in the improved touring series and he beats E90 M3 V8s, Falcons, etc even on a track like Bathurst. You can imagine that how badly he whips the V8s around Mt. Panorama to make the presence of the very long Con Rod straight irrelevant.

Re: Old F1 Engine Development Documentary

Part 2: https://youtu.be/gqfVAGOaGEc Names I grew up with mentioned here, Patrick Tambay, Alan Jones. I missed the days of Arnoux, Alboreto, Cheever, Patrese, Piquet, Rosberg, Teo Fabi, etc. I remember Osella was running an Alfa engine and was always near the back of the pack :) They could have used...

Just interesting to see men with ties in a dyno room with an untested engine. :mrgreen:

Old F1 Engine Development Documentary

I've heard the narrator's voice in many British docs since I was a kid. Love this documentary though. Duckworth F1 engine development.

Re: MD has a racing team in the UK?

Yeah, my dad's first Alfa was a '68 Ti. He came from a VW Bug 1.2, so obviously it was a huge jump. He loved it to bits. Then upgraded to a Berlina 1750, another car he loved because he said it revved better than the 2000. The Giulia is definitely one of my favorite-est cars.

Re: MD has a racing team in the UK?

I think this 156 lost his gears. Seems quite typical. Seen a few of these FWD V6s, even with a LSD diff blow up eventually. The Aussie 147 GTA with the 6-speed sequential gearbox seems to be bulletproof and his gearchanges are fiercely quick.

MD has a racing team in the UK?

I know it's hard to believe, but despite his tendency to have Alfas with 2-cylinders short of a real Alfa, in the UK his team is doing well with a V6 Alfa. :mrgreen:

Video of a 75 3.2 battling MD's 156. Got a bit close to the 156. MD tactics.
