Re: Sprint racer

Sounds promising Tim, my Class C Sud (steel body, glass, control tyres, etc) back in 1997 showed 175bhp (8v) and I was down to a 1.45.1 at Cadwell so you should go well - hope you have a good start to the season.

Re: Sud S3 rear wheel arch repair panels

Hi Tim - I'm not sure if there ever were 2dr/4dr specific panels to be honest so I suspect the pair you have may have been the only ones available unless anyone knows differently? Are you open to selling yours?

Momo boss adaptor cover and S3 light surrounds

Bit of a long shot perhaps but for my Sud I'm after a Momo steering wheel boss adaptor cover - the rubber bellows part that goes over the adaptor - I've probably thrown several away years and years ago! I've fired off various emails to UK stockists but no luck so far. Also, a pair of S3/Green Clover...

Re: 1.7 and 1.2 Cranks + 1.7 heads

Thanks both - I did reply several weeks ago with a thanks to your tip off Tim but the message seems not to be here.

Dad spoke to Dave and he does indeed want a 64mm stroke crank. I've since put the 1200 crank and heads on the dreaded Ebay - I'm sure they will go in time!

Hi,

I'm after a centre console (lower) with gauges for my SC - I'm constantly looking for a water temperature and oil pressure that aren't there :)

Thanks Simon. I led from the start, got the tyres warm, established a gap then backed off and kept it sensible for a finish (and win). All went to plan until the last corner of the last lap when the pinion shed it's teeth - though I had enough momentum (and time in hand) to roll over the line for th...

I know these are well sought after and are actually very good in road cars as well as on track. In case anyone is currently looking for one there are two units available here (in Portugal), be quick (not my advert):- https://racecarsdirect.com/Advert/Details/101929/quaife-alfa-sud-sprint-33-torsen-lsd

Nope, entirely different car. We went over to Italy and viewed the 33 16v that Andy bought and the 75 Turbo that Graham bought - both bought from Technica Racing (Drovandi) in Spring 1994.
