Dan,
You may appreciate the webpages showing the rebuilding of my 89 2-liter.  They
are on the KC-AROC website here:
http://www.kcaroc.org/techses/89rebuild0/thumbs.asp  It was my first one too,
so maybe I can help answer questions.

Subject: [alfa] Alfa Owners in Omaha ?

Hi again Alfisti

  As I indicated in my last post (about what to do to my top after sitting 1
1/2 years), I'm about to remove the engine from my '88 Spider Quad and give
'er some bottom-end work.  I can't handle another summer without her.  Now
don't get me wrong . . . I love my wife and think she's beautiful.  BUT, she
can't handle a right-left switchback with a 25-foot drop anywhere near as
well
as my Quad and she absolutely refuses to let me take her top down in public.
So... I fix the car and take them both out for a spin.

  My inquiry is this:  Are there any Alfa/Spider owners in the
Omaha/Bellevue,
Nebraska area with experience in engine work that have some free time to
offer
advice and councel to a first-time-Alfa-rebuilder?  I have some experience
with engine work, broad-based general mechanical knowledge, and a desire to
learn and do just about anything new; including rebuilding an Alfa Romeo
engine myself... at least the bottom-end... for now.

  Thanks to all who may reply.  I would take it to the one or two only shops
around who still work Alfas, but alas, I am only a lowly service man with two
teenagers to feed and can't afford such things these days.
