    Bravo, well done!

    I don't know, but I don't think so.

    Se sei appassionato dei motori del grande Giuseppe Busso, dovresti leggere questo meraviglioso libro.
  4. To all Alfa Romeo fans I recommend this wonderful book that tells the story and technical aspects of the work of the great Giuseppe Busso in the Milanese factory. It is a truly interesting book.

    Thank you Paolo (Baron Von ...) for your comment. I have never tried the 3.0 Busso in its variants, but I have heard several times that the 12 valve has a huge torque at the bottom while the 24 valve pushes a lot up and has better acceleration performance. As for the 2.0 V6 TB I felt that it has an angry push! I agree with your ratings. The only Busso engine that I tested was my grandfather's Alfa 90 2.0 V6 naturally aspirated injection. It was fantastic: it had a great pair, a wonderful progressivity in the delivery of power, and at that time it was the most powerful aspirated 2.0 on the market among sedans (as it had happened with the Alfetta years ago)

    I am about to buy a Spider 3.0 V6 12v and I would like to know the driving impressions of those who have driven it. Do you have 3.0 24v? Does it give a strong acceleration boost?
  7. Return to Alfa

    Great! 👍 Dino, you who have both cars, can you tell us about the performance differences of the 3.0 V6 and 2.0 V6 TB?
  8. Return to Alfa

    You are right. But we must resist, continuing to turn on the roads of the world with our Alfa cars.

    Foto very beautiful!

    Hi Dino, congratulations for the spider it seems in excellent condition. Have you started doing the jobs you were talking about?

    Beautiful compliments! What are the qualities of the car that affect you most?
  12. First Post

    Beautiful! It's that engine! Can you tell us how the engine pulls?
  13. Ultimate 916 Spider

    Thanks. The sticker with the Biscione on the side is beautiful! I wanted to know some driving impressions of the 3.0 V6 12v
  14. Ultimate 916 Spider

    Thanks for the photos! it is really beautiful! do you know anyone with the 3.0 V6 12 valve?
  15. Ultimate 916 Spider

    Bellissima! Complimenti Jon e sembra in ottime condizioni. Di che cilindrata è? In questo forum c'è una recente discussione su come intervenire per riparare la capote elettrica. Ho anche partecipato e ho inserito un link interessante.

    Thanks, your impressions are very interesting. I agree with you: the only drawback of the Alfette with the transaxle scheme (the gearbox combined with the rear differential) was to go down from third gear to second. I remember when at twenty I took my father's Alfetta 2.0 I scratched myself many times! But in reality the third gear was so elastic and powerful that it was not necessary to go down into the second ...😜

    Do you think the 3.0 V6 12v mounted on the spider 916 approaches the performance and efficiency of the Alfetta 3.0 Gtv of the eighties? Of course the 916 has the injection while the Alfetta Gtv 3.0 had the carburetors...
  18. New kid from Germany via SA ... GTV TB

    Hi Paolo, congratulations again, you have a great experience with Busso engines! You are a great alfista! I'm glad you understand Italian. For simplicity I am writing to you in English. Of all the Busso engines you have tried, which one excites you most?
  19. 916 spider from Seoul

    Meccanico 512 sei un grande alfista! resisti con il tuo amore! ti scrivo in italiano perché ho letto che lo parli. Hai ancora l'Alfa Romeo?
  20. GTV V6 TB

    Gorgeous! What colour is it?
  21. New kid from Germany via SA ... GTV TB

    Hi Paolo, congratulations for the Alfetta Gtv! Have you also had the Alfetta Gtv 3.0 v6? It was a real rarity, assembled by the Alfa Romeo branch of South Africa with the engine installed by Autodelta in Italy and brought from 2,500 cc to 2,934 cc. It had 186 hp and instead from the electronic injection of the 2.5 model it had 6 carburettors! What a show! But do you still have it?
  22. Greetings from Johannesburg, South Africa

    Alip 82 congratulations the machine is very beautiful. I read that you also had a 1969 Spider 1750: a show that is worth a lot today!
  23. Greetings from Johannesburg, South Africa

    Alip 82 complimenti la macchina è molto bella. Ho letto che hai avuto anche uno Spider 1750 del 1969: uno spettacolo che oggi vale tantissimo!
  24. Hello from Montreal

    Grazie Michael, per i tuoi preziosi consigli. Accidenti, hai fatto tanti interventi, ma vedrai che ora non avrai altre noie. E invece quali sono gli aspetti più piacevoli dell'auto?
  25. Greatings from Turin

    Ciao Gian, avevo letto il tuo racconto sul sito Biscioni Torino: è una storia molto bella e scritta con tanta passione, mi è piaciuta così tanto che l'avrò letta tre quattro volte. L'auto è bellissima. Mi piacerebbe mettermi in contatto con te per avere ulteriori tue impressioni e valutazioni. Se la situazione del COVID-19 migliora dovrei andare a prendere uno Spider 3.0 V6 12v del 1999 in Germania, proprio come hai fatto tu. Sono di Roma.
