Alfa Giulia 1967 Step Nose Resto Mod Build

Forgot to mention regarding the front wings, if you go for the AH suspension front geometry kit :-
"Increasing castor by being offset forwards and also corrects the front roll centre back above ground level, in so doing increasing the roll-on camber at the same time"
The Kit parts are excellent quality but they push the front wheel forward in the arch, AH offer a diagram showing how the leading edge of the arch needs to be modified, so if you are considering going for this kit your front wing will need modifying when its done you can't really tell but worth planning ahead with your build

Have a good Easter - this helps with project motivation.......

While the bodywork progresses time for some engine work, as the 105 chassis needs the winged sum to allow the 2L twinspark to fit I managed to find a nice example and had it aquablasted looking so much better, no broken fins. Carrying out a bit of a trial fit

Just wondering if anyone’s been carrying out any works on their 105 or got something planned for this year ?

Deep diving into the engine for a full rebuild its been sat a while so who knows what I am going to find.......

Good choice - I also have AHM pistons and conrods in my GTAJ replica.

Please remind me, what cams, ECU, carbs or ITBs? what power are you hoping for?


Hi all those items are up for consideration as we speak and maybe some others you haven't mentioned......

Big Day

More work on the engine the new piston and rods are now hidden which is a shame, the STD cams were marked on the lobes could have got damp at some point in its life so I bought stage 1 Kent cams and valve spring combo also fitted the AH cam chain / sprocket kit which allows you to run without the variator.

Now fitted with the billet cam cover
