(ETC), durable forged-steel crankshaft, piston-cooling oil jets,
coolant-loss protection software, GM's Oil Life System, 32 bit
microprocessor, coil-on-plug ignition. The engine will be built in Australia
with capacity expected to be 200,000 units per year.
      Specifically for Alfa Romeo will be the additional of the direct
injection JTS system. The new Uniair will also be offered on higher
specification versions & Orbital 'air-induction' is being considered at

      Alfa Romeo will not make use of the second Powertrain offering, the
new 'Global' XV8 4.3 JTS. ( This engine with 360cv & 480Nm, will be used by
Lancia firstly in the Thesis as early as the end of next year & possibly in
future Fiats ). However Alfa Romeo have concluded an agreement with Ferrari
for the exclusive use of their new 5.0 V10 engine, currently under
development, as well as the familiar 4.2 & 6.0 units.
      A second Ferrari 5.0 V8 is being built, this is an increased-dimension

      The 4.2 V8 will be used in the GTA versions of the new Spider, GTV &
Brera. The 6.0 V12 JTS Uniair with 630cv & 750Nm will be fitted to the Alfa
Romeo TZ3 GTA Scuderia Ferrari. While the 2007 Alfa Romeo TZ4 will offer the
5.0 V10 JTS Uniair with 600cv and 650Nm.
      Lancia will not use the GM/Powertrain XV8 engine but will use a
Ferrari engine in their 'Supercar of the Centenary' in 2006, the Lancia
