Re: V6 Power: What about the guibo's / driveline / clutch

Re: V6 Power: What about the guibo's / driveline / clutch? My stock 2.5 Milano Gold popped a donut under some to the redline acceleration, higher mileage than the Alfetta; but I'd guess unless later Milano's or Calloway GTV6's had beefier driveline flexible couplers, all that power would not make for long lived drive line components.

Actually kind of amusing, the donuts usually popped when a friend or neighbor took my car(s) for a test drive and wound it out to see what it/they would do. I guess, I just drove them and did not push them, the donuts cracked, but did not disintegrate. Made them gun-shy, tho I held them harmless. Sadly, I guess it wasn't real good for Alfa's percieved reliablity.
