Who can find a very interesting mechanical feature in this project that, somehow, links this Toy(ota) to Alfa Romeo?

The whole restore project is absolutly perfect...I´d love to see this done to a, for example, 75 Turbo IMSA

R-U-S-T :shock:

But I guess you mean the Twin sparkplugs?

Can anyone see the link between this engine and the old Saab B-engine out of the OG 900? :)

Obviously this car has some history, looks like an old Rally car, Group A or maybe even Group B?? :o
Anyway, it's not the Finnish way of doing stuff. The easy way I mean, they rather do it the right way. :wink:

Yeah...I mean the double ignition, 8 valves and double chain-drived twin cam. The Turbo is a nice extra-feature Alfa could have used to the TS´s.
