Re: Another Stratos project
No troubles Chaps with the hijacking on my build thread!
That makes me laugh we discuss here of cars in USA...I don’t know any VIP there since Donald leaves the white house!:D
It’s nice too to see others gearboxes or parts nicely refurbished on forum whatever the thread !

The engine in standard version is almost completed...awaiting a next fitment with the gearbox!
Re: Another Stratos project
Very nice!
Where do you get the carbon belf cover from, I've seen them before but never seen anywhere selling them.
Come to think of it the ones I've seen are for all V6s EXCEPT the 166 - any idea why? They look the same shape to me!

Re: Another Stratos project
The original cambelt cover was damaged and broken, also I decided to replace with a new one from a friend Alfa classic seller
They are a few suppliers of carbon parts in UK like ACT or Alfa carbon parts where you could order one!
Re: Another Stratos project
I found that post too. £550! What is different about the 166 that means a gta version won't fit?
Re: Another Stratos project
I like it! I've had very brief discussions with a fellow forum member about making one of these...but time is a bit of an issue at the moment. I didn't realise it had already been done. The quality looks great! Also looks to be moulded in 'pre-preg' too.
Re: Another Stratos project
How much of that part is visible when looking at the engines in our cars?
I like a bit of bling but not quite sure what I'm looking at :confused:

For sure the engine isn’t the most visible thing on our cars when we drive! ;)
Bling cosmetic isn’t my main goal, the use of carbon parts aluminium sheets and light materials is also to lighten the LB chassis and improves its performance!!:o
