Please do more Alfa content, if you can! These videos are the only reason my Alfa is coming back to life! Thank you !

Which way is the tab bent to enlarge the gap between float and carb lid

Hey Jethro - I know this video is 2yrs old, but…were you sure that was regular grease and not (Castrol) Spheerol - which can be used in steering and gearboxes? Spheerol flows at any temp, unlike regular grease and can help stop leaks. Thanks.

DUDE WHERE CAN I GET JESTS FOR MY 36DCD 7 WEBER CARB IN SOUTH AFRICA

Good job

Hello, sorry, what is your whatch?

Great video. Is there a difference in each side of the shaft? I messed up the threads a little and wanted to reverse it so I could put the linkage on the fresh thread side. Thanks

Mate, hope all is well and that we'll see your return soon; you've given us an addiction that needs a long overdue fix! :)

Come on lad wtf happened I really enjoyed this channel

Great info - well done! Thanks for sharing!

Hope you are doing well. Love the style of your videos, they were very calming. Even if you don't have the capacity to give us an update...just know we love you! <3

No posts in a year? Hope all is good with you sir. Happy Xmas to you and your family.

Would like to visit your workshop in Dargle KZN 😊

Good work

Just make that top half designed to be removed. You kinda explained it yourself. Bolt ons.

Hi,what’s the rubber seal you fit on the crankshaft at 3.47 in the video?

may i know wich parts you changed in the end? only the second gear synchro? or the gear too? anything else? thanks. i'd love to see the two parts together, the worn out one and the new one to understand how to spot a worn out part.

thanks for your video. I have a alfa spider with twin boosters and wondered what they did. thank you for explaining and showing how it works. The video was great in understanding how it works. thanks for taking the time to explain

Good work ❤

Miss your videos friend!

Why are you out of you tube. come back please

Jethro we miss you :(

Its been a year, we're all super desperate for an update! Hope all is well concerning the build.

At 28 seconds..what socket are you using to turn the crank?

too bad this channel is dead. It was an interesting project.

Don't by this 123 Ignition Dump!!! It's very big Shit.

Excellent for amazing work

Your pod should have no so we can identify the program

Just like new! Nice!

Thank god for you because I'm getting whipped by this setup on a 68 Giulia Super. I needed this guidance

Thnx for the video, very helpfull. I am going to overhaul the engine of our 1.3 Giulia. Isn’t it easier to disconnect the frontside of the driveshaft when pulling out the engine? If any of you have good tips; i am glad to hear them!

I have done quite a few of these and alfetta gearbox’s Dude you got this!

I hope you come back. Be well. Stephen

OK BUT IT'S NOT THE GEARBOX OF A GTV...

Good instructions BUT!!!!! You didn't mention ( or even know?) - that the brass discs have machined angles at the point of contact with the venturi ports - so must be installed the correct way round to ensure a proper seal when the butterfly is closed. The discs come in various angles which is stamped onto the disc in most instances, or a reference number which gives the angle. If they are inserted wrongly the seal is lost when the butterfly is in it's closed position.

Come on Jethro!!

Here’s a revised version of your text: "Excellent car and what a labor of love! I’m looking to buy a Giulia Super 1.6, but I’m concerned it might feel slow and struggle on the highway. Any thoughts on this? I know one can upgrade the cams, exhaust, and ignition to boost performance, but would the difference be noticeable or would the car need more significant, permanent changes to the engine to improve performance. I've read that some people swap the engine for a 2.0-liter Nord. What are your thoughts?

i like so much your style. no awful music, no stupid excitement, chill and straight to the point.

Thanks for the shout out and the furthering of the knowledgebase of such an important and overlooked piece of the Alfa Puzzle! Gprocket (aka @bradco_restorations)

The 123ignition made a world of difference on my 240z. Throttle response was greatly improved. The Butt dyno gives it a double thumbs up!

Very nice video, personally I wouldn’t have bothered wearing gloves when installing the clean parts though 😊

When you tried to refit the brace to the roof I noticed that there was something wrong as the sound while welding didn’t sound correct. Was the metal perfectly clean? If it was then your MIG settings weren’t correct. And to much spatter going on.

I'm negotiating on a very rusty 1971 1750 GTV. It's been sitting outside for many years, will need all that chassis work, interior needs total replacement, all much like this car. It is straight and complete though. The owner is a packrat, has about 100 cars on his property, mostly BMWs, a couple of 912s, just the one Alfa. It's a dance, trying to establish a rapport, listening to his BS, his intention to get to it and all. I'm not offering much, the car has value as a starting point, it will take a lot of money and a lot of labor, fortunately I've done this sort of thing before, on Alfas and three XK-Es, rotisserie body restorations. The seller is in his late 60s and in ill health, I'm 78 and doing OK but not as spry as I used to be, time will tell.

Not sure if you are still around, hope you are and are well. Just wondered as I watched you grind the shim, the buckets must vary slightly so could you not use a micrometre to see if any of the buckets were sufficiently different to allow you to use an off the shelf shim for that particular valve? Or should you not move the buckets from their original placement in the head?

what metal did you use for electroplating ? what thickness ?

any paint that would work, brushed or sprayed, for the metal parts ?

These videos are priceless documents, you can read about this all day long on the forums (which are great) but to actually see the work being performed in such a high quality format like this is something else.. thanks for the work and effort put in.

Hi Jethro,what blast media do you use?

you gotta do more vids :)

Love these videos! You are making it easier to restore mine! Thanks
