I've been reading about an alfa gtv in issue 7 of leaded magazine . It is a track car competing in the targa and other races. The owner was writing about new work he had done to the head and some dyno tuning. They were able to get the engine to make power through to 7500rpm. They didn't push much further for fear of damaging the engine(I assume). It is fitted with 48mm twin webers (huge).
I have an L20b and I'm wondering what sort of head work I would have to do to get it to rev to 7500 or 8000. I don't think it's unreasonable but so far I haven't found a mechanic who can give me some clear direction. I currently have a pair of twin 40s and soon to fit extractors. I was going to have the head work done before the extractors are fitted.
I'm happy to buy a head that is already done or buy a spare to have it done . Cheers Simon
