Alfa to Ford T9
owelly - 8/4/05 at 02:39 PM

We have the bellhousing. We have almost sorted the (Saab) slave cylinder. We still need a spigot bearing. O/D 23mm I/D 15mm. Any suggestions before I trundle off to the local stockists for some bronze to machine????

I think the bronze is easiest option!

Alfa to T9 bellhousing.

Where is such a thing to be found ?


owelly - 8/4/05 at 06:20 PM

Trev Borg has one for a long shaft T9 box from a XR4i and I have one for a shorty shaft T9 from a crusty old Sierra of some sort. Thats it I think. Just the two bellhousings for now

Did i mention how white yours looks


owelly - 9/4/05 at 11:15 AM

You know it's my fave colour


zilspeed - 9/4/05 at 03:23 PM

Hand fabricated ?


owelly - 9/4/05 at 05:36 PM

I used my feet and a nammer

Boom tish........


owelly - 9/4/05 at 05:50 PM

Oh yes. I also used a boom tish. And a drum roll. And a bread roll.

I FOUND ROLLER BEARINGS FOR SPIGOT!!!!
It's amazing what you can do with a bearing catalogue


Trev Borg - 12/4/05 at 05:30 PM

Have I ever told you how much I love you.


owelly - 12/4/05 at 09:06 PM

Yes Mr Trev. You have.
Jacko wants to know if you're coming to the christening??? Is this the sort of questions you find on here?


Trev Borg - 12/4/05 at 10:51 PM

What time and where ?

Then all the locost builders can come aswell.

You are all invited, bring wine woman and song !!!!!

Whining women and snog!!!!
Jackos' ouse, about 12, 12-45ish.....
A gadgy at work is breaking his Saab 9000 so I'm robbing his CRB/slave. But he wants to keep it in one peice til he has sold the engine


Trev Borg - 15/4/05 at 07:07 PM

sounds like a plan

I've got a 2 ltr 1979 from and Alfetta GT that I want to use in my next build.

I have a 2litre motor out of an '80s Guilletta kicking around that I've been thinking about, I'd need a flywheel as well though, as the one on it is for the transaxle set up so there's no clutch.


Trev Borg - 17/4/05 at 07:56 AM

All the alfa engine are great, and very cheap cos the rest of the car tends to rot.

I can not see why more people don't use them.

I suppose once we have ironed out a few problems, there may be a bit more interest


owelly - 17/4/05 at 04:33 PM

We're using the 3ltr v6 device out of 164's. They are cheap and look nice!!
