Fiat Abarth 850TC replica w 1050 motor in California

While in some ways it makes me sad to think this car should really be vintage racing, I am happy I can enjoy it on the streets around my house whenever I want to. In the one scene you can see the car takes about 10 seconds to go from 0 to 60 mph without revving it very high or shifting super fast. The tachometer reads 25% too high, so 7000 indicated is really 5600 rpm.

Cool! Wish we could see the car from the outside. I race a 64 1000TC with 1050 motor. Watch the videos on you tube at Abarth64. Cheers

Great video! Thanks for making me aware of it and your racing!

Yes, I need to have someone shoot some video of the outside of the car as I drive past.

HOW MUCH HORSEPOWER CAN THIS ABARTH ENGINE PRODUCE? WHAT IS THE TOP SPEED?

I have a ZASTAVA 750 made in Yugoslavia (basically a FIAT 600 with 750ccm engine) and I want to put an ABARTH engine in it.....

It has an engine from an Autobianchi

A112 70HP, which is a 1050cc motor. In stock form it made 70hp. Mine has a bigger carb and race cam and probably makes about 80. The top speed is rev-limited. That means your top speed is determined by how fast you are willing to spin the engine. At 6000 rpm it is going about 90mph.

this is a 1000 tc replica. 850 tc not have anterior radiator

[Pantdino]

The 850TC street cars did not have anterior radiators. But the 850TC racers had anterior radiators very early on. The rear, fan-blown radiator could not keep a racing engine cool and drained power from the engine.
