Pretty pricey !

what steps did you take to prep the enine bay ?

I just took out the rack and al other associated bits and am about to start cleaning it down with wax and grease, then sand it to bare metal - but I need some paint and prep advice.

this is wicked. Nice colour ! How much prep work was involved and what rust was there - if any ?

For thos who may be interested I had a look today and the Part Number is 1-0033-22-820-0
underneath the part number is a 40

I would say perhaps go with the stock length, then adjust from there ? measure it on your car - if you can.

Just had a look at it, its a BOGE brand - I will get the part number and see what info I can get out of Boge germany.

Ron Simons sell these setups. RS racing.

expensive maybe but not OEM expensive !

engine gasket kit 181 pounds
head gasket set 166 pounds !

so AU it would have been over $880Au

I got my full engine set for just under $400 and they were in stock - so I am very happy.

Thanks for the help guys.

Not knowing f I am expecting too much here, but if I take the damper to a suspension specialist - can they rebuild the internals of the damper by seing what the seals size, setup ect are like ? Or am I asking too much. From all accounts it appears that these units are NLA from alfa or suppliers so h...

MD - I dont really like the tone of your post/s here. You are coming off as a wanker to say the least. I didnt see www.MDgtv6.com when I punched in the URL in my browser. :roll: From your post it seems that because you don't want to use one - you have to force your opinion onto all others - and shou...

no need to feel sorry.

The steering damper is a stock part on any gtv6. And there is no power steering on the gtv6 as you know - I don't recall mentioning I had one. But yes I will be putting the damper on. Alfa engineers would not have put it on there for show.

Hi Brian,

yes I did. SUPER fast shipping.

Thanks Scott.

Its a Federal Mogul Owned company I believe.

hollow cams ? holy crap!

its probably been discussed before but the damper probably fails due to heat, the selas etc wouldnt last long in that area. I thnk that o a rough road it would make a difference - if its indeed functioning. Reason most people notice no diffrence is prob due to it being shot anyway.

Gaskets arrived Brand name Payen from belgium.

Anyone heard of them ?
