re: 105 giubo bolts (was: engine pulling)

[Dana Loomis <dloomis@domain.elided>]

In AD V8 #883, Jon Pike questioned (perhaps rhetorically), the orientation
of the giubo mounting bolts shown in factory parts manuals:
>Haven't seen the manuals,  but is it because it's better that way,  or 
>because it's eaiser to draw that way?   ;-)

People who are certain that cars were assembled at Arese using whatever
parts Luigi happend to pull out of the bin after a few shots of grappa may
find it hard to believe, but Alfa Romeo's factory parts manuals are
actually a reliable guide to the way the cars were assembled.  The drawings
show the driveshaft bolts from various angles, but the orientation of the
bolts and nuts is always consistent.
