    3.0 12 Valve Cylinder head. (4,5,6 Bank)

    Just a fresh appeal on this.
    If anyone has even a bare casting in serviceable order I'd be very grateful for it.
    I sincerely hope it doesn't come to this but if I can't sort the cooling issues with the spare 12 valve engine I've installed in Frederic's car then I'll have to look at rebuilding the engine which failed after only 250 miles or so of gentle use. Only I'll get it done by someone who knows what they are doing this time........

    I've got a tired engine you're welcome to John. There are some odd bolts missing from it but if you feel the need to pop over and have a look just drop me a line!

    Hello Guy, and thanks for that.
    I would of course preserve the rest for anyone else struggling for parts.
    I take it this is the engine from which you gave me the flywheel option when I was searching the other week?
    I have your mobile number from that occasion so I'll give you a ring.

    That's the one John. It ran fine when I removed it to upgrade to the Cloverleaf but felt down on power to me. You may be able to swap it out and see if it exhibits the same issues as the current motor?

    Hi Tim, John hasn't taken the engine yet but I do have a spare NOS sump that didn't fit the Cloverleaf motor. I'm not sure why and don't know if it will fit the 12v motor. It's been fitted with a boss for the oil temperature gauge (the boss was supplied by Gary so it's likely that your sump has this already). If you would like this I'll happily post it to you at the weekend and you can see if it'll fit your motor. We can sort out what the postage and value is later?

    Here are some more pics of the sump Tim, if you can identify the engine it fits I can decide what to do with it!

    Cheers

    Found this post on Alfa BB - maybe it helps identify sump?

    http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/164-...tml#post841019

    If you Google (images) the part number suggested there (96412235), you can see some very similar pictures to those posted by Guy but on a Brazilian parts site (one picture even shows the sump with that part number affixed on a sticker):
