on a ferrari 308 with the individual air cleaners from Pierce Manifolds, i could tweak the carbs, change the plugs ( all 8) and mess with the whole top of the motor. the Jalpa was a royal pain in the butt because of the Federal mandated sealed airboxes for gas fumes / emissions.


so please, show me what USA spec Jalpa you have in Austrailia and how you change your forward 4 plugs.


i simply want a euro car instead, and i am exempt in Georgia on any EPA, DOT, emissions regs on any car made before 1985. i dont even have to have a title here on any car made before 85!


show me how you guys change those plugs "Down Under!!!
