The set below appeared on a German advertising website. Maybe someone needs it for a project/reconstruction.

Sorry to say but there is nothing here that Alpina may have used.

It's probably more of a modern, well-made replica based on the original, but I think it found a taker.

 

[rsporsche]

naaah, just the gratuitous use of a few Alpina stickers.

 

[Lucas]

Of course, Alpina stickers are a salesman's trick, but someone might need the carburetors themselves.

They are DCOM's not DCOE's DCOM are the much later emission carbs

Thanks, Rick

Thank you for your reply and information. When posting this thread, I knew that this Kleinanzeigen set had nothing to do with the real Alpina.
I unnecessarily added the name Alpina in the title of the forum thread, just like the seller did in the title of the ad.
However, I thought that someone might find the carburetors themselves useful.
At first, I even thought that they were modern, well-made replicas, but the seller himself described that they were originals manufactured in Italy and were adapted to the M30 3.0 engine according to the description.

Both @Ohmess and I run DCOM’s. They are the last Italian Webers made before moving to Spain. Like Rick said, they are emissions carbs so they have ported and manifold vacuum ports, barrel air bleed balance screws, and fine thread mixture screws. Definitely not Alpina, but you can dial in the various afr’s more accurately than DCOE’s because the transition circuits are linked together via the main jet stack.
