Are these the engines that need cambelts every 3 years? Should be a fair few knackered engines for sale in scrappys in that case?

As your in south yorkshire you could try Motorhog in Bentley.

Don't expect a quick reply if you have emailed them bud, might be better giving them a ring

Have AutoLusso been back to you yet? If so and you've had no luck, give Mal Nicholson a call at Trentside Sports Cars on 01724 783506. He's based near Scunny so not too far from you, and he's got stacks of spares floating around that he's collecting over decades of working on Alfas. He might just have what you're after.

There is a really good Alfa breaker near Todmorden (not a million miles from you). I can't remember the name but Google should sort you out. He is a top bloke and sorted me out with a six speed box for my 156.

That's him. Really good guy. His place is a bit hard to find look out for a few parked up Alfas.
