hi havent been working on this mini for a while as was building a new garage iam going to use it on a lanes rally on the 15th feb so need to get engine built . i have changed plans for the engine as the shark /osellie head engine is going in the blue mini as my son need a 1l engine for the class he is going to compete in  and  i bought a ex migilia rebuilt engine on ebay been told its good for 125-130bhp on webers i dont want to cut the bulk head  and i have ordered the sc compoents fuel injection system for it  as its meant to be better than  a weber for torque and fits in the engine bay also orderd  a clutch and straight cut gears from med  same as one for the blue mini . Hope to get engine built by the end of next week .
