1971 Alfa Romeo Montreal Service Repair Workshop Manual PDF
VEHICLE/EQUIPMENT INTRODUCTION:
The 1971 Alfa Romeo Montreal continued to captivate automotive enthusiasts as one of the most visually striking and mechanically advanced GT cars of its era. Nuccio Bertone design house penned the gorgeous bodywork featuring the signature headlight louver covers sweeping fastback roof and aggressive front fascia that gave the Montreal an unmistakable presence. The heart of the car remained the remarkable 2593 cc aluminum V8 engine a road-going derivative of Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 sports prototype racing motor. Featuring double overhead camshafts on each bank Spica mechanical fuel injection and dry-sump oiling the Montreal V8 delivered smooth high-revving power that was truly exotic for the era. The chassis married a rigid box-section ladder frame with double-wishbone independent front suspension and a de Dion rear axle with inboard rear disc brakes on early examples. Crafted with care at Alfa Romeo production facilities each Montreal represented the pinnacle of Italian grand touring engineering.
SERVICE AND REPAIR SCOPE:
