I have a 1984 stock gtv6 with the 2.5 engine which i have had now for nearly 4 years which I run throughout the summer (If you can call it a summer here in the UK). It has stock manifolds an ansa mid section and csc back box. The engine runs beautifully and when it reaches 4000rpm the sound is fantastic and it revs through to the limiter if i want it to.
I have however just aquired a 1988 3.0l 75 engine from ebay which I got for an absolute steel
The ad read as follows;
"Alfa 75 3.0 V6 Engine, Bosch L-Jetronic version
For Sale, one Alfa 75, 3.0 V6 Engine, removed from a 1988 car.
Mileage was 122K I recall. I obtained it to use for spares but never got around to stripping it.It was believed to be a good runner prior to removal.
It is complete with all ancillaries, good condition exhaust manifolds, loom etc ( Bosch L Jetronic version). (see Picture)
It must be picked up by buyer from Huntingdon in Cambs, and the auction does not include the "skateboard" it currently sits on.
Any questions can be answered, just email me.
please note: I do not currently have an engine hoist hence buyer must plan accordingly.
£25 start....so get bidding"
I bid late in the evening and bought it for £51.00!!
The question i would like to ask is how much more hp and torque does the 3.0 have and would i be foolish to remove the 2.5 when it runs so well.
I will be laying the gtv up this winter and so could spend time maybe tuning the 3.0l
I also have a spare 164 12v 3.0 engine which has only done 84k would that be a better engine to use.Obviousley the 75(milano) engine would drop straight in with no mods.
so my 2nd questuion is which of the 2 is the "better" engine the 164 or the 75
Thanks to you all in adavnce
