  • What exhaust setup is this? This is....amazing...simply an amazing sound

  • Just makes me smile hearing it. I owned one of these when I was a kid.. had a wonderful silver one. Now that we're older.. my friends tell me at a cocktail party a while back that they could always tell when I would arrive somewhere they were cause they could hear it a block and a half away.

    That explains quite a bit.. looking back on it. God what fun this car was. By far the favorite of any car I have ever owned.

  • nice engine build congrats, it sounds great : )

  • yeah ...i aspire for my gtv6 to even sound close to this amazing

  • Beautiful Italian power!

    Very cool sound. 

  • that sounds..... awesome ♥

  • le vere alfa sono queste!!!!!!

  • ajjjjjj 3.6

  • Why would you complicate?' Take 156 2.5 V6 24V engine and mount it in. Maby the 75 gearbox fits with minimum changes.

  • Incredible machine - mine is still 2.5!

    Possibly a bit hard to judge seeing as you do the work, but do you have any idea on how much this sort of thing would cost to the average GTV6 owner? I read somewhere that the 2.5L block (or any 12v block for that matter) could not be mated to 24v heads without some serious work and re-drilling oil lines etc?

  • hey there, i'm a bit new at the older alfas.

    So the original GTV6 came as a 2.5 L V6?

    You replaced the original head with the 164 head, and then bored it to give it extra 700cc? I'm just doing some reaading on older alfas thats all.

  • Hi, no, I modify the 24v heads to work on the gtv6 12 v sub assy.

    I then use a 30l or 3.2 l crank with new sleeves and pistons of 100mm bore and get either 3.6 or 3.8 l. This particular car is a 3.6 l 24v , all based on the original 2.5 12v engine.

    Thanks for watching..

  • sex six

  • hey who did your big bore conversion?

    i know of a gut in pta who is world renown 4 alfa and the tuning and seen some of his gtv6 work and its amazing.

  • Gary, Hello. Please see the post above..Cheers.

  • I want one!

  • HAY BABY!

    TAKE YOUR RIDE TO ALFA...

    AND REMIND THEM WHAT ALFAS REALLY ALL ABOUT!

    FORZA OLD SCHOOL>>>>>>>.

    trust me, these are the best alfas, yeah ive driven and own new alfas,,, nothing compared to my gtv!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • the real sound of alfa romeo!

  • Which is the original machine? 3.0 south african?

  • Greetings, No.This is a 2.5 GTV6 block bored to 100mm fitted with 164 24v heads.

    Thanks for watching !

  • fantastic sound !!!!

  • damn nice sound! and a really cool car..

  • That-sound..awesome!!!

    You got some more a that?

  • What mods did you use to get the V6 from 2.5 to 3.6L and what is the redline?

  • 3.0l crank, 100mm bores..redline for the road is 7200 rpm..

  • More Videos please!!!

  • Aaah,not too comfortable with who you are , hey ?

    Funny tendencies already ? Dont worry,you will get used to it....

  • cioè...mostruoso..il solito sound della porsche carrera gt ,solo che questa alfona ne ha 6 di cilindri l'altra invece 10....mamma mia che rombo favoloso,bello proprio sembra che si strappi qualcosa..

  • Nice sound, you don't see these here in UK. Sa got the best rugby, best braais, best women and now pos the best gtv!

  • Comment removed

  • Great car. Have you swapped in a LSD tranny from a 75 yet? I have a 84 GTV6 with a 12v 3.0 swap and I'm contemplating going with the 75 tranny as well. Also, what is the redline of this car, what about your 3.8?

  • awesum gtv! how did u get that sound? hope my 2.5L 75 sounds n goes like that one day!!

  • The sound is a combination of 24v heads,the large 3.6l capacity and the 76mm exhaust system.

    And thanks for watching !

  • Mistake by me sorry - it's an 80/81 donar going by the dash. 82 saw the binnacle bolted together and 83 on was a new housing. Forget the 1st question

  • By the way..The 30l Alfa Gtv6 was developed AND built in South Africa ! They were NOT imported.

    Its a truly S.A. beast.

  • What was the donar car? If I remember correctly Alfa officially imported the first 3.0 GTV 6 to S Africa with 3 x twin chokes - sort of loosely an Alfa 6 engine. Car looks like an 83 - 86 2.5 spec. Did you bore out a 75 engine. Are there still original 3.0 carbs out there and how much do you know about them?

    You mention you have a 3.8 Guilietta. Was there major fabbing to drop that engine in? Thought the largest was the 2.0 4? Sorry for all the questions

  • Credo,hello...This is an 1983 2.5 gtv6 into which we fitted the 24v engine.The engine is based on the std 2.5 v6 block,liners are 100mm,30l crankshaft..24v studs are fitted and so are the 164 24v heads..a few other mods are neccessary and it all works very well..

    Yes,My Giulietta has a 3.8l 24v (101.4mm bore,gta crankshaft..)The motor is out at the moment as I may have a broken ring somewhere..I had a constant oil usage problem and need to repair that.

    While its out Ive also had the car painted

  • I will take this car over any viper, mustang, supra any day! even if dis car is front wheel drive dat exhaust note is pure heaven!

  • Thank you..This car is definitely rear wheel drive and a lot of fun..It sees regular track days here in S.A. as well..Brakes are the next big upgrade..

    Thanks for watching my vid.

  • hey guys i got a 78 veloce what kinda exhuast sounds good on them im knew to alfa.

  • amazing sound reat car post more vids pls

  • It makes me cry that engine music, only alfa, say what u want, there is nothing that tingles the spine like that blood curling howl, if u want reliability and practicality, then u dont get it, go buy a fukn toyota !

  • Aaah,signori,You have just NOT owned a properly built Alfa Romeo engine yet..One that will make the same horsepower as a 355 Ferrari for a 1/4 of the price..

    When you come to South Africa,let me know..I will give you my personal Giulietta with the 3.8l 24v engine to drive for your stay..Afterwards,If you still feel the same about the engines,well,at least I tried..

    Saluti..

  • i wouldn't mind driving ur Giulietta lol, having 3.8L with jus a step on d throttle would b awesome, how much power is ur GTV6 making in dis video?

  • Aah,sorry guys...This car is making 244 wheel hp from a n/a 3.6l 24v..

  • Whatever! I have a GTV6 3.0 12V with just over 220 hp and it has never burned oil. We have people in the states and our S.A. mates who build 24V 3.0 or 3.5 engines with 300 to 350 hp and no drips. Heck even my 1987 2.5 75/Milano never dripped oil.

  • ive owned 7 alfas and only the 33 that i had gave me any trouble neva really liked the 33 anywaz im more the alfetta gtv sorta person

  • it's insane!! lovin the sound!

  • Tom,Dammit! I blocked you by mistake!Sorry..trying to unblock you..help??

    Barry

  • Love the car and the sound. Had a gtv like that before, but now have a gta. Love the gta, but wish it sounded like that.

  • wow sei proprio un frocio ad accellerare sul dritto!!!

  • How to cross a car engine with a symphony orchestra.

  • The turbo is coming..Ive still got to make the intake side for the engine..

    It will be posted soon..Thanks for watching my vid`s.

  • Keep it normally aspirated! You'll lose some of that gorgeous intake noise and that crisp exhaust note :(

    Love the car!

  • My goodness whats with the hostility?

    Sounds awesome, well done Barry!! I love it! wheres footage of your 3.0 turbo...?

  • mainstream or not it sucks.

  • no music was only made in the late 60s and early 1970s

  • you're living in the past douche.

  • maybe but only douche like your self could posibly like the garbage music made today.

  • You're probably thinking of mainstream bullshit and you're too fucked in the head to seek out anything worthwhile. Sad cunt.

  • makes lots of noise.

  • that's not noise, that's music :)
