Lots of people have, search away. It's an easie fit than in a GT or a Duetto BUT it can and has been done. I also understand why.

Lots of build threads on then the AlfaBB too.
'66 Duetto (lacework of doom)
'73 1600 GT Junior (ensconced)
'03 156 1.9JTD Sportwagon (daily driver)

Have installed TS in my 66 Super for a bunch of years now.  Never looked back. Drove a friends Berlina fitted with one beforehand and was impressed by the mid range torque compared to the 1.8 Alfetta engine I had in mine which had high comp Pistons fitted.

Main issues are the crank needs to be drilled for the input shaft (some TS engines already were). Need headers, manifold to suit either carbs or injection and an ignition system. Easiest is just a single distributor.  Engine runs just fine on one spark plug firing. Engine just bolts in no problem. Check out number of posts on alfabb as suggested. I sourced all of my stuff form alfaholics. Not cheap but plug and play.

Thanks Tony I would love to come and look at your GIULIA if it's possible we have had Alfas in the family since 1952 as this dads I would like to put it on the road I'm in Eltham vic

I know someone with a T-S engine for sale at a great price. And the back of the crank is pre-bored for to suit the spigot bush from a 105....
