When the E21 3-series was introduced in 1976, Alpina immediately offered a choice of four different engine upgrade packages. These engines were based on existing upgrades developed by Alpina earlier for the BMW 2002.<\/p>\n
After BMW launched the 323i and Alpina started having commercial success with the B6 2.8<\/a><\/u>, most of the four cylinder engine packages were discontinued.<\/p>\n
The four cilinder engines offered by Alpina were:
\n* A1\/3 (120 bhp)
\n* A2\/3 (150 bhp)
\n* A4\/3 (160 bhp)
\n* A4S\/3 (170 bhp)<\/p>\n
These upgrades were similar to the earlier versions fitted by Alpina to the 02 series cars, with only small changes. The versions for the 3-series were identified by their “\/3” designations. All these early engine upgrades were installed either at Alpina or at approved distributors.<\/p>\n
