Stunning race car! Where did you get the flares? I've been thinking about flaring my '71 GTV racer, since the body's not perfect and the GTAm looks SO cool...

That was a custom made manifold built by John Norman of California. It came with a modified twin spark head and the 48mm webers.

Flares I had for about 12 years. Alfa Ricambi when Waren Caldwell was with them, he got me all the parts that I have in this car for the duplicate GTAM. Since then Recambi closed down and now Warren is with Spargo.

The system is called Electromotive. Runs from a trigger on the side of the front of the crank and has a computer to adjust rpm and timing.
