Re: AHMotorsports
I'm sure Adie builds his own, he is an engine builder.

Re: AHMotorsports
Surely you fellow GTA owners are interested in their 3.8 conversion kit. Looks very inviting and a lot cheaper than the autodelta option.
All that needs to be done is the boring out of the block.
Is there anyone here who has had this done?

Re: AHMotorsports
can't comment personally about AH's workmanship but by all accounts it's first class.

Re: AHMotorsports
Sure all mechanics most probably is carried out well, but what about the electronics? The ECU must surely be remapped after a conversion like this?

Re: AHMotorsports
Adie's main market for the 3.8 engines is for racing, which means full race ECU's, not just remapping a std ECU.
Adie has his own rolling road too.
If you contact Adie direct, I'm sure he will provide any info you need.

Re: AHMotorsports
Adie's work is first class, one of the best engine builders imho. Big V6 kits almost certainly come via S.A. Glenwood motors.

Re: AHMotorsports
Im really starting to give these guys some thought. My conscious is telling me not to mess with the block but is rather spend money where the real gains are.

Re: AHMotorsports
I am seriously considering getting a Q2 diff fitted which is listed on their site, I need to get the belts and front anti roll bar done at the same time. At the moment it is a toss up between going and giving them a go or going back to Alfa Aid who I haven't used since I had the 75 about 5 years ago, but always found knowledgable and didn't a brilliant job.

Re: AHMotorsports
Dawie(Glenwood) and Adie(AH) use different brand internals so each do their own conversions. Take your pic between. I know Dawie does some nice work, that has come straight from one of his US customers. Try him for a quote on a 3.7 crate motor, The exchange rates were quite favourable a while back, may still be?
As said before, Adie at AH does very good work.

Re: AHMotorsports
Yes, I have rebuilt my own 3.0 litre 24 valver with a 3.8 litre conversion supplied by AHM. Adie's work is 1st class. Fire away with any questions ?, john.

Re: AHMotorsports
Whats the web address for these guys? I've seen it loads of times but it doesn't come up on Google and I can't for the life of me remember the URL.

Re: AHMotorsports
John, (Alfamail)
Could you post a few more details such as how long it took and cost etc.
