Hi, I hope this is ok to post here, but I am having real difficulty finding the AC bracket below, part number 60534463. It bolts to the block and timing cover with three bolts, and then to another A/C bracket, which I have.

If you have no luck with any of the club sponsors I would suggest contacting your local brake specialist and either take the torn seal with you or the whole caliper if possible. They should definitely help you out.

116 Series (Alfetta Sedan/GT/GTV & Giulietta Sedan) / Re: Motronic conversion

I would stick with L-jet on the V6. On the 4 cylinder Motronics Alfa used an Idle Control Valve, but on the V6, for some reason the Idle speed is set by varying the ignition advance. Having driven many miles in GTV6 and 75 3.0 with both systems, I can tell you they drive exactly the same, except for one tiny issue, you are more likely to stall the motronic 3.0 when pulling away from lights. I can only assume this is due to where the ignition advance happens to be when you start to move. I think the 164 V6 has the ICV, so that would be the way to go.

Hi, I have an Alfa 75 TS engine in my garage, and I was thinking along the same lines to keep my 1975 Alfetta GT with its original engine number.   If you would like to mount the CAS sensor in the same place as a TS, let me know and I can take detailed pictures of my TS engine at TDC. I am not sure if this is the same location as that used by the Alfa 75 1.8IE / Alfa Spider S4 motronic set-up though.  Can you confirm festy?

Unfortunately I have torn a seal trying to get one of my 4 pot pistons back in.

Can anyone please belp:
- what the brake caliper model/part number is for a 2013 QV

General Discussion / Re: 81 GTV Australian dealer turbo

Gday,

Bit hard to say without seeing what's left of it, yes the cost will probably be double what it's worth at the moment but it will appreciate as time passes.

What original turbo delta bits are left on it? Does it have the gauge in the car and the exhaust manifold and bigger front brakes? There should be a braided oil feed line to to the turbo and a special t piece from the oil pressure sender, it should have an oil catch canister on the front of the engine, along with vents cut into the engine bay. Also what number is it if it was a John French car?

cheers.

Mick.
