Specialities

Upgrade your 101 Giulia Spider to as near original Veloce Specification as possible. Of course this does not simply mean bolting on the twin carburettors! Apart from the carbs - which have the same set up as the original Veloce - the upgrade consists of fitting special engine mounts which cant the engine sufficiently to allow the twin carbs AND the all important air filters adequate clearance, the gearbox mounting is also modified to match the engine cant, a reproduction Veloce exhaust system is fitted, the camshafts are upgraded, the original type electric fuel pump is fitted in the original Veloce location, an aluminium sump for improved cooling is used and the original type oil filter cartridge/bowl is converted to a spin off type filter.

Future oil and filter changes will become much easier and those minimal but annoying oil leaks from the original oil filter set up will disappear!

No permanent changes are made in this conversion and the original type oil filter cartridge/bowl can be reinstalled at any time.

Once the spin off filter set up is in place an oil cooler can be added if required. Fitting of an oil cooler will help sustain higher oil pressure readings especially on long trips in warm weather.

This oil filter conversion is available for all types of Alfa engines which have the oil filter cartridge bowl set up including 1750 engines
