About 1 year ago I was approached by a young man selling a Alpine A310,
formally registed to the Dunmurry DeLorean factory and used for testing
purposes..he wanted a fair bit of money for it, but as it was a bit tatty, I
did not follow it up.

Other then the exhaust system, and possibly fuel injection and
manifolds, are there any differances between the engines used in the
Alpines and the stock PRV's used in the D? According to an online
listing, one of the factory owned Alpines is currently for sale for
£7,500. The owner states that the car has approx 200hp. From a photo
of the car, the motor appears to be equipped with a K-Jetronic
system. Does anyone know how this car was modified (new cams, higher
compression, etc...)? Other versions of the PRV configuration that
I've seen have been 3 double barrel Webber carbs, and 6 single barrel
carbs. In otherwords, and the any mods that the Alpine A310 has that
could be applied to the DeLorean?
