Sorry, allow me do disagree with you Tony  Wink The UK cars were badged as "Mirafiori Sport" but the handbooks still referred to them as "Racing" as they were the same car. Gearbox and diff ratios were the same and only carb differences (if any) were due to country and local fuel differences. Swiss cars, for example, had extra emission reducing equipment fitted.

Well, strictly speaking that's true but the USA version of the 131 Mirafiori which was known as the Brava had versions with fuel injection  Wink But also some of the works rally 131 cars had kugelfischer mechanical fuel injection although it was never fitted to the road going Stradale versions; they simply had a single twin choke carb.

But when I mentioned emission equipment I didn't mean fitted to injection engines. Some 131 engines had vacuum operated air valves that would introduce clean air into the exhaust ports; a system also used in the first series Gammas and possibly other Lancias. Emissions are measured as percentage of the bad stuff in the exhaust gasses so if you add plenty of fresh air in the exhaust the percentage of the bad stuff is considerably less  Wink

Here's a 131 engine with such equipment fitted.

My 131 panoramasuper was exactly equipped with this system. It was a scandinavian version imported from Sweden. The engine code was 131C4.054.
