 |

Hello Guys,
I bought a Sprint green cloverleaf build in 1985 with mechanical speedometer. Now I saw that there´s an engine with gearbox from a 33 is mounted.
So my question: Is it possible to change the speedodrive from electronical to mechanical or otherwise, is it possible to swap the mechanical speedometer into a electronical w/o much modifications of the Sprints instrument panel.
Sorry for my bad english, but I´m from germany.
Kind regards
Walter |

Dont really know that well the differences. But i think that you have to change the gearbox, to make the mechanical speedometer work.
Later Sprints, had the engine/gearbox/front brakes from the 33, so they have already the electronic speedometer. If you can, try to find one of this speedometers.

You will find most of the sud/sprint guys/experts over at Alfa owner.com.
We are mainly 33 on this sight, you should be able to get a definitive answer there.

Not true, Paulo...
Later Sprints still came with mechanical speedo...
It is possible to change some parts inside the gearbox to adapt it to the machanical speedo.
I just dont know if it is possible to do it with the gearbox in the car, but I think so... |
