hello all my name is aidan. i recently bought a 1983 guiletta 2.0. and i love it. how ever i am looking for an lsd gearbox and a reco engine can anyone help me out? thanks!
Hi Aidan, I nice choice for your first Alfa. I too nearly bought an 2L Giulietta though I can't remember which year it was. It was a nice car, red of course. I have owned a variety of Alfas over the years. Depending on where you live, if for instance it is in Melbourne I would try Milano Spares. Marc is extremely helpful. i am happy to check with a mate of mine to see if he has any ideas on where possibly to find either a gearbox and/or reco engine. If I have any luck I will post a message for you. The other options include ebay, the Alfa club mag classifieds, and or even possibly the trading post. If you havn't already you could also post a request on the for sale/wanted listing here on the forum. Cheers and hope you enjoy the Alfa, Dave

Aidan - you can get an LSD from any twinspark 75 - but they will probably cost about $1200 - $1500. Making it into a gearbox suited to the track with a mix of ratios and more suitable 'slip' will cost another $2000 or so..
