I have an 82 GTV 6 Balocco with the Milano Platinum transaxle with limited 
slip diff. I also have an 83 GTV 6 with the stock transaxle.

They seem like 2 different cars, but I can't confirm that it's the 
transaxle that's making the difference. It is possible that the previous 
owner of the Balocco made some other modifications. It is really noticeable 
off the line. The Balocco is much more responsive.

If you are looking for some parts in Ontario, I bought some used alfa parts 
in Hamilton, Ontario from Serpent Motorsports. The last time I had been in 
touch with Serpent Motorsports was about 18 months ago.

If I can give you any other info send me an e-mail off-line. I live in 
Edmonton.
