    Hi all,

    I have a '76 Lancia with a ratty driver's seat. Does anyone know if there is a leather re-upholstery kit for these or do I have to go from scratch? Color is a red.

    I have a '76 scorpion also and don't ever recall seeing at kit. I know it's not cheap but your best bet might be to have a shop recover it. And while they're at it, they could also add more padding to your liking.

    That's what I thought but figured I send out the idea. Also looking for a little bit more aggressive cam as I'm converting to dual Webers. Any thoughts on that?

    No one sells it.

    I don't like the stock seats much and went aftermarket w/ most my Scorpions. The stock seat is heavy and the adjuster rods commonly break.

    Where did you find your cam? I'm putting on dual Webers and need a hotter intake cam than stock.

    I got mine many years ago from another owner who was selling his.
    If you can't find Scorpion specific ones, you can get Fiat ones but would have to swap over Fiat cam boxes also or change the distributor gear if top mounted or install a cam-end distributor.

    Side-draft or down-draft? What are you doing for exhaust? You can't bolt on a performance top-end and expect all the potential horsepower w/o swapping in higher compression pistons first.

    I've got a shop here near DC if you're not a do-it-yourselfer.
