    Anyone got one of these selection shafts from the outside of a Busso gearbox?

    Before I try and get one made (or try back ordering one from Alfa), I thought I would see if any of you lovely people have a spare kicking around that I can buy.

    The shaft where the length of threaded rod from the Corse gear selection system bolts to the gearbox on a Busso V6, well it seems the slightly stiff gear change meant it was flexing the end of the shaft so the lug that the bolt goes through has snapped.

    Adie at AHM helpfully dug out this diagram (with a "how the hell did you break that" ), where the part that is broken is part 3, which looks like it will easily come out if I remove bolt 8. So if I could find a replacement, it looks like an easy swap.

    This is a 1989 3.0l V6 from a 164, but in usual Alfa style two possible parts are listed depending on chassis number but the diagrams for 2.5 and even 2.0 turbo look just the same. Hopefully as I'm not hooking it up to a 164 gear lever it doesn't really matter.

    Thanks for looking - Richard
