The one on the left is an Alfa part, the one on the right is some aftermarket part. If you look closely, you can see a difference in the profile of the teeth. The aftermarket part has more surface area, while the Alfa teeth are chamfered to the tip. I am guessing the larger teeth on the aftermarket gear are for added strength, so the teeth last longer.

Does anyone have hard info on the difference? The color difference makes me wonder if the shiny Alfa sleeve is not moly coated.

Thanks!

Do I need to have them machined dimpled and spiral cut? (chamfered edges were recommended as well to help oil migration between surfaces)

Thanks,

My brother, hmacris, posts here a bunch so figure i will join in the fun.

When taking apart the shift linkage of an 85 GTV6 to replace the clutch the shift rod would not come out of the rest of the linkage. I have done it before on other GTV6s but this one was rusted on after the pin was removed. So after heating and cooling it and smacking it and spraying it for days I started smacking it and broke one of the pieces. It is the tube with the fork and fits on the left side of the linkage. So i took the broken part to my brother and he made one at the machine shop at his school that was perfect...

I was making some bushings for the ends to take up the play and gave the piece to my father since I didn't want it rolling around my car while i was at work for the week so I gave it to him and drove my truck away. My father left it on the edge of the bed and now it is gone.

1. Does anyone have photos of the linkage (i know their are two styles)
2. Does anyone have any extra parts so we don't need to build another.
3. Are there any modifications that improve shifting.


Thanks

One thing that I noticed while down there was that I didnt see that the spring that runs along the pivot arm was there(not talking about the earlier return spring). Is that a very necessary piece? Is it dangerous to drive without it? What is its function? ]]> Transmissions AntonyR http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/transmissions/158313-clutch-pivot-arm-spring-reason.html Where to get Transmission repaired http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/transmissions/158299-where-get-transmission-repaired.html Thu, 05 Nov 2009 02:40:55 GMT Hi, guys :D I am looking for shops that do transmission repair.

Does anyone know if there are available any aftermarket Flyweels to fit the V6 engines. Specifically one that is for a 7.25" Tilton Clutch.
This will be for my 3.2 V6 Turbo project engine that will be going in my Stratos replica.

Cheers
