I recently purchased a 71 2800cs with a alpine 3.3 swap from a guy in Greaegle Ca. Im just posting some pics of what it looks like now. Seems to be rust free. And it came with a lot of extra parts including every replacement piece of rubber.

Looks all there. How does the 3.3 pull?

Do you mean an Alpina motor swap? Are there any Alpina markings anywhere on the engine?

sorry

Sorry yes i meant alpina, autocorrect isn't always helpful lol. As for how the car pulls, i can only compare to a 2.8 auto that i test drove. Compared to that its night and day. The motor i have has a bigger cam sounds amazing at idle. And the markings. I kind of looked around for markings on the motor, searched the internet to see how to but there was no definitive answers. I was just told that it is out of 79 alpina car. The car was in an accident and the guy i purchased it from bought that car and put the motor/drivetrain in this car.
