Hi Jim
I pre-ordered your book about a year ago in Switzerland but didn't hear anything yet.
Do you know if it is now also available in Switzerland?

Hi Philip,
As far as I know, the editor was receiving orders for 1-2 years, but the book has become available just now. I received notice it is on sale in the UK (and will be available in the US in ~10 days). Your best bet is to contact Veloce Publishing right away and find out when you can expect shipment in Switzerland.
Regards,
Jim K.

Fantastic been waiting for this book to come out.
Big fan of your work Jim the Alfa DOHC engine manual is fantastic.
Any more books planned??

Well, one one hand I have enough new material for the 75TS engine (2liter 8-valve), the 75 1.8T and the 3liter 24v, but on the other hand, this book business has cost me a $hitload so far. An idea I have is to put all this new material in a book (definitely my last one) along with many different Alfa dyno plots (any engine, any model, various sates of tune) from the same dyno of course for ease of comparison. A comprehansive description of the tested engines will be included with photos. This book will be produced in a limited number of copies -I haven't decided yet but it will be somewhere between 1000-1500. This is just an idea now, I will have to get down to writing after I finish my latest 1.8T engine and my planned 3.2liter 24v, parts for which have already started to arrive ...toyz for boyz...

Could you please update your book with mods for the 3.2 V6 as found in the FWD GTV/GTA/GT?

Well, why not, I'd second the post above

If for nothing else, the first one is now out of print...

I can't include any specifics on fwd issues as my application dealt only with the 3.2 engine in a rwd car (my Alfa 75, originally 1st series 1.8T). There is a lot that one can do with the engine though, regardless of how it sits in the chassis. Don't ask for dates or additional info, I'm still compiling the work; no idea of when it may come out. Believe it or not, the financial crisis has also influenced my work...:depressed:
