Pinkmini the plan is to get her some air at the IMM in Belgium as the last show it was at was the Mini 40.

After that it will be races. Where I don't know yet.

Cut off the old expansion tank bracket and made a new one out of it. It will bolt onto the cross member where the LHD pedal box would be so it does need to be removable for easy of engine removal.

Now I just need to sort out the fuel regulator position.

Expansion tank fitted.

A bit tight but the filter King fits with no contact.

Been lots of measuring and measuring again. And a bit of making and remaking.

But the hole has been cut.
