Classic Alfa Forums

This is my Sprint. It has been in my ownership for almost 5 year but I know the history and the person who rebuild it back in 1991/1992. It sits on Ronal A1 7x15 and yellow Koni with 45 mm lowering spring At the moment it got a 1,7 ie engine converted to carbs with raised compresion, lighter rods, 282 degress C&B cams, very light ported heads and a 2,5" Iresa exhaust with a crossover manifold. It puts out around 130 bhp which is not enough so I'm building a 16v on carbs just for the fun of it
Here is a ton of pics

stunner mate, real stunner

Great looking sprint ! Love black cars

Familie car

Nice sportwagon

I like seeing your Sprint, it's one of my favorite's.

Thank you I got all sorts of plans with it (16V on carbs) but our 2 month old son is acting up a bit right now. Hopefully I will be ready in May

Finally got some time to work on the 16V engine Big ends bearings ok so no point in changing them TB etc striped of the engine. Will get a nice cleaning with hot steam and after that some green Hammerite

And now it's green Still needs a 2nd coat though. A picture of the manifolds aswell

well done that man!

"Mmm" green and black go well together and silver too but I'm biased there.

Yes black and green does go very well together It does goes nice with silver as well

It looks like the inlet manifold has been milled from solid? - Neat work.
PS Very nice Sprint!!!

Yes they have been milled from solid. A danish guy who works with CNC machines made them to use on his own buggy. Then he desided to make a few ekstra pairs to make a buck since all the hard work with making the programe for the machine was done They are by far the best ones i have seen

2nd coat of paint and trial fit of manifolds

My new RamAir filters

We had planned a boxer day with the Danish Alfa Club. It seems that Ronal A1 is the wheels that everybody wants
