Yes,I am������,real.

what car are you putting it in? I like the concept. tell us why it's a good choice.

Are you going with an Alfa transmission or just the bellhousing? Would seem odd to swap the motor and not the transmission.

Why use the 2.2 L61 ecotec instead of the much more powerful 2.0 LNF or LDK?

The 2.2 is Easter to find,a d cheaper,you can get 180-185 hp out of it easy,but most importantly. The torque is far far better than the Alfa Romeo. Motor,no less than 120 ft/lbs from 1000-6500 rpmc,can be updated. To 165 ft/lbs also ,much. Better than stock,I already run the t5 transmission in my car,this will go into my spider

My turbo spider would beg to differ on the torque front :grin2:

Seems to me, if you are going through the trouble of a motor swap, why not go big?

 

[bianchi2]

I can add a low boost turbo if I wanted,looked into it already,I am designed the turbo in mind for a later date

Why would it be trolling? If he can get rid of the Alfa motor, it'll be a huge step in the direction of the ultimate goal - completely ridding Biachi's Alfa of all Alfa parts.

 

[bianchi2]

Mine still would be faster transmission +16 valve motor ��

A very valid point.

Bianchi, wouldn't it be easier to go the other way? Buy an '85 Mustang and put some Alfa badges on it

 

[bianchi2]

when is a alfa motor the same as a alfa motor

when they are the same motor, some of you folks are ' deniers ' but the motor in a ecotec gm car is the same as the alfa romeo 2.2 , water pump, chain drive ALL THE GASKETS, cam phashers( later models..but I think I could put some of your noses on top of the motor, and you still would not say they are the same motor,,sad..

I am waiting.................................. alfa romeo( fiat,, codesigned the motor with gm( opel Europe) and the head is a lotus design..)why can you not belive this
? hard to understand why not, unless you think that alfa romeo motors are mystical motor built by unicorns, and elfs..alfa romeo is in dire times,, they could not develop a motor by themselves in the ealry / late 2000..

 

[bianchi2]

alfa romeo 2.2/ 2.4 chain drive photos,how could you not love this motor?

 

[bianchi2]

more photos

 

[bianchi2]

most of these photos I got from.....wait for it........ alfa romeo websites( europen sites)

 

[Gubi]

Oh, GM, sorry. Should've suggested you start with an '85 Fiero. IRON DUKE!!!

(man, it's so easy to get Bianchi riled up!)

 

[bianchi2]

Me?riled up,nope,just using. Logic and facts�� got to try harder to get ,riled , up, kisses ��

So it's a Fiat engine? Perhaps with an Alfa valve cover.
