little vid of the mini back on the road. Taking it slow as I had hardly any brakes and kept loosing traction on the greasy roads.

You do not know how much I want to do this to mine, I'm like Luke, Vauxhall or Suzuki!! Such a hard choice. I think I'll get someone to do alllllll the work for me. Yes I'm lazy.

Made a bit of progress over the last few weeks.


Designed and started flow testing the manifold for the eaton 45 supercharger










Got Audi A4 hinges for the flip front.


Bought another engine



Bought an intercooler



Also bought some some new injectors from 3000gt

Stop buying all these engines and leave them for other people to buy

[iamcabaged]

I wouldnt have to if I managed to get a decent one in the first place!! Will be getting one of the knackered ones rebored with low comp pistons for the supercharger.

[kcchan]

Well if I need spares I know who to come too. lol

Ah i didn't see that one, they look ideal.

Would go for this if i wasn't going removable, making me think twice though!

[iamcabaged]

Little update....

Got new engine running but I dont think it will last long :s

Got miglia arches fitted and bonnet catch mounted...with release inside car

Also decided on a colour - Artic white with all the chrome painted black
