Forums Forums Lund : Mini City

the mini engine is certainly unique, both its exhaust and inlet ports come out on the same side with 2 inlets feeding the 4 cylinders (1 per 2 cylinders) and the exhaust, the two outers take either end piston while the centre takes from the two in the middle. i'll try a get a picture..........

this is all i could find, but you can get a faint idea. you can get 8 port heads for the bugger which do release alot more power but then you usually have to cut a hole in your bonnet like so

Yeah, the ram pipes etc

That pic of th manifold is an LCB, yeah your right on what you said Saved me explaining it! lol

cars gona look well sweet! id love an old mini, this might be a stupid question but can you put new CD players, speakers and subs etc in old minis? will it all work?

Yes u definately can Its 12V

hard to find the space though! lol

Was in my garage today and i still have mini parts if you are interested.

Roll cage
wheels

also dazza my (not 100% sure) have a turbo and bits for a mini.

Ok, cheers for the pm Tony Not really interested in the parts you have mentioned. I'm not interested ina 6pt rollcage! lol (I think i can sell it for you if you like). Think i'll stick to buying my 12 inch revolutions!

Hey peeps: The mini has a really good embarrassment factor in that, setup properly with the right engine it can surprise lots of other cars, maybe not blow them away, but give them a run for their money, especially in the traffic light grand prix!

Mine looks so sweet and innocent and when minis race people are shocked they can be so fast! Thats what i like about minis. You just dont expect it, and you can imagine a great grin when you do it, even if the other person isnt trying. :lol: Go Mini! Youve just been Mini'd

Did part of this for a laugh: Scoop did arches, did the rally bits Not much lol

Going to make an effort to complete this part resto in the summer and to be on the road as soon as possible. I will continue works whilst its on te road but i just want it on the road and ready for use when i turn 17 and get my provisional. Take dad out in it then...

So in summer - Watch this space!

On Sunday I went out to the Mini and made the bonnet fit and go down another notch!

My Astrali steering wheel, and one of my new adjustable bullet mirrors!

Has some fun doing this, I know its not done properly but it still looks great!

where is the cruisewirral graphix on the windows and sun strip.
