my 2.0l 16v build

well just had aload more stuff arive for putting together fitting and moddifying the mini,
so the hard work has begun, just recived everything so that the
16v engine should go in easily(but time will tell) including my
heavy duty machined drive shafts



and i have half aquired an mg metro to nick a few bits off like the brakes,
trailing arms, etc.......

after many months of waiting, finally got my 6 point roll cage delivered,
should make the cars chassis stiffer and should stop it twisting with the more power

loads more pictures on the way lol
