🔧 Alfa Romeo Nord Twin Cam Engine
The Alfa Romeo Nord ("North") twin-cam engine family, designed by Giuseppe Busso and Orazio Satta Puliga, underpins the classic Giulia, Spider, GTV, and GTA road and race cars. Its twin-cam architecture — the first Italian twin-cam in a production saloon — allowed the Giulia GTA to produce 170 hp from 1.6 litres in race trim. The same fundamental casting serves both the Spider's smooth tourers and the Sprint GTA's all-out racers.
