This is my 1984 GTV 2000 on our club cruise to the seaside town of Ardrossan on Yorke Peninsula, two weeks ago.

Very nice. Looks to be a euro spec Alfetta GTV 2000. I did not realize AR made the 2L that late. Would really love to see engine pics of this car. Do you have any?

Here are the engine pics and one of the interior (please excuse the dirty carpets). The engine is not the original unfortunately because the previous owner blew the original one up and had it replaced with about a 1981 model of unknown mileage. I removed the big old York air con compressor in order to replace it with a Sanden one.The car had only done about 113,00 km at the time and is now on 115,000. I have all the paper work from the day it left the showroom, so the mileage is genuine. It came with Koni yellows and Momo steering wheel and gear knob. The interior is excellent. When I bought the car it need new gearbox mounts, rear donut and a whole lot of electrical issues sorted, which I have fixed. I still need to replace the engine mounts and will pull the head one day to do the valve stem seals and guides. Second gear synchro is stuffed but I am getting good at double clutching. The car has been getting me around very reliably whilst my 75 is having the damage done by a hare fixed.

Also this car did 13.00 flat in the 1/4 at grand prairie drag strips, in the hot texas summers.
And YES those are wheels from a 1990's alfa, lighter weight and they look better, came with the car. I had the set of TOYO RA-1's fitted on there.

I've never heard of taking a V6 out to 4.2 litres. That's a hell of an increase in bore and stroke. How did you do it? If that engine has a Megasquirt on it how come it still has the airflow meter installed and connected? It looks like a completely stock 2.5 that hasn't been apart to me.

The 164S wheels on the six weigh quite a bit more than the stock wheels that came on the GTV-6.

4.2l from the little 2.5 block?
It cannot be done.The largest Ive done is 3.830l.And it was unreliable.
I standardized on a 100mm bore and 76mm stroke.3.7l reliable.
4.2l is not possible.

Brit Montreal
Here's a couple of pics from the UK. Right hand drive Montreal. Has all the usual modifications - BMW calipers, Harvey Bailey handling kit and upgraded water pump bearing. Dry use only, so here's hoping the worst summer for decades here in the UK starts improving pretty soon...

After a year and two months of not purchasing an alfa (my personal best  ) i got two in June. 
Up first is the 1983 GTV6 with 74,000 from the original owner in Mass. The good is NO rust and the engine pulls like new, bad is the blue interior and silver paint is shot. I threw in what i had for a tan interior and will hopefully have the money for a paint job at the end of summer.
