hello...just a few questions

[coll]

hello all....iv been looking around but sadly cant find the answers to my questions.

my gf's grandfather has a 1300 junior. he imported it from italy. he was thinking about adding more HP to it and doing a few things with the engine. i was wondering if anyone know where he could take his alfa to a place where people know what their doing. anywhere in the CT area is fine can even go in the neighboring states doesnt really matter.

i saw this video of one does anyone know who tuned this car???

YouTube - Giulia GTA Corsa & GTA 1300 Junior

thank you for all your help

.. if you can . find a rear end off a spider..78-94? this will have a lsd in the rear..wont make your car faster, but it will make your power work better..and also.. flush! your brake fluid( had to rebuild a whole system on my friends 1968 gtjr1300.. the whole system was rusted, and the rear hose was collapsed... man that was a job)can you do your own work? if so a cam change will work some. but porting the heads will help a lot..

thx for the reply.....hehe sadly im not that great when it comes to cars. he has already put in alot of work in the car ill take some pics tom when i go there. he is just wondering if there is a tuner or a garage in the CT area that knows more so he can get more power out of it FI etc...

Simple. Buy a rusted out Berlina or Spider, preferably with carbs. Look for a 1750 or 2000 engine. Should bolt right in, if your GD's car has a hydraulic clutch. And indeed, look for a car with an LS diff. If you find a Berlina, the front uprights with bigger brakes are a straight swap.
Same for spider 1750 or 2000.
Cool!

Do not get confused the GTA is a very different car to the GT

[Seinista]

Right. I took it he was in the wrong topic and had a 'mere' GT1300 Jr.
So please, some pictures or more info on the car, wether it is a GT or a GTA!

anyways more info on the car he has a 2000 engine in it parts were shipped from cali and was put together here in CT or in Mass dont really remember. he pushing app 170hp he thinks. and he was wondering what else he could do to add more.
