I have a TS head on a 2L going into my Super. It's a Valant motor built by Gary for me before he died. It's the same motor that was in his GTV pictured in this thread. I'll be able to run this in VSCDA as he did based on the (loose) logic that there was a twin-plug Alfa in the period and the 75 head is close enough.
I'm told they'll make me run with carbs and won't allow me fuel injection. Was the Lucas electronic? If it was I might be able to use that as a basis for getting it in.

Not to take this off course, but what wheels are these? And are there repos available?

They actually DO look like replicas to me. The original GTAm wheels were a bit different - but those are now in production again - although aluminium, not magnesium.

Ted & Jorgen I believe the wheels are original Campagnolo items I have seen them on TZ2's and 33's just trying to find a picture.

Thanks Pete. Looks like I'll have to try another way. Carbs are harder to make work with that head than EFI from a fitment point of view.

From another GT Am , left & right front suspension notice the regulator on the bottom of the shock absorber and the rod ends used on the front anti roll bar , also look how different in height the top arm sits using knuckle risers in comparison with the stock top arm ...
