“There New Old Stock and used shims in the set”
Brand:Alfa Romeo Country/Region of Manufacture:Italy

I'm selling my set of valves shims for the V-6 engines. These are the original harder shims that Alfa required all V-6's to use. You can tell the difference by the harder ones have a single groove around the outside. 

These shims were close to double the price of the 4 cylinder ones. In 1994 Alfa ( well really Fiat ) decide you could use the 4 cylinder shims in the V-6's. They were discontinued in 1994 and have not been available for years. They were only available in sizes 1500 to 3000. 

We found that the 4 cylinder shims would actually have excessive wear on the underside of the shim after 30,000 miles. So while 4 cylinder shims will work. With the V-6 ones you will be adjusting the intake less often. They also work great in race engines. 

All the shims have been ultrasonic cleaned then dried in an oven. Then they were sprayed with Boeshield which is a rust preventive. I have sorted all of them with a Mitutoyo calibrated digital gauge. There are 269 shims. A lot of them are nos and due to the ultrasonic cleaning the used are just as clean as new ones. 

The shims are in an original Alfa Romeo valve shim box. This is the same shim boxes that were issued to Alfa Romeo dealers.  The box is in good condition with original magnet. The box does have some scratches on the outside from use. 

I am selling several sets so look at my other ads as quantity and pricing are different.

Honda Vezel crossover arrives at the Tokyo motor show

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

For the record, Vezel rhymes with "bezel," and it's the name of Honda's long suspected Fit-based crossover. Honda showed off the new Vezel hybrid model at the Tokyo motor show, though the production model set to launch in Japan in December will also be available with a straight-gasoline 1.5-liter direct-injected engine also. Other details are still slim, but the company did claim a "Sport Hybrid i-DCD" powertrain will get a stronger engine and most likely a dual-clutch transmission with integrated electric motor.

Bonkers Renault Twizy EV on sale at £6,690 +video

Sat, 14 Apr 2012

Renault Twizy EV - now on sale in the UK The Renault Twizy – a four wheel EV Scooter – has gone on sale in the UK this week at £6,990 plus £45 a month battery hire. To try and make electric cars do what conventional cars can do is a pointless task; it’s just not possible, certainly without quantum leaps in battery technology which, despite endless claims to the contrary, seems highly unlikely. But that doesn’t mean electric vehicles don’t have a place – they do.
