Technical swap engine perhaps

[barryfiatman]

We have a 2005 Fiat Multipla with the 1.9 115hp engine at 239,000 kms.
Just wondering if a 2.9 twin turbo Alfa engine would fit in instead?
Has anyone done it already?

Almost, but built on a Brava/bravo chassis.

The world's only 5 cyl transverse motor Debut was the Coupe (tipo chassis)

Later fitted to Marea/bravo/brava

Potential Tipo derivative;
local Coupe specialist built a 1929ccTD coupe

Sorry, when you said the Tipo chassis I was thinking of my Multipla, not the Tipo chassis that was used for the 5 cylinder engine.
The multipla was on the Bravo chassis. Sorry

It is possible to find online information about projects created (and completed!) by Polish mechanics: successfully fitting the 5-cylinder 20V Fiat Coupe power-unit to a Multipla AND successfully fitting the Alfa Busso power-unit to another Multipla.
