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 laugh

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

How are you mounting the engine? I was rading up on this a coupla weeks ago:

http://www.16vmini.co.uk/faq.php3

Looking good, where are you based?
the engine is been mounted into a custom made subframe.

seen that site yonks ago, its not really up to date any more, it was posted up on the 16v mini club a few years ago, think its one of the members off there, im based near southport
