They've probably had a customer ask them to build a K head engine and are just incorporating the parts they've made into they're range. |

"1460cc steel engine" probably means all the internals, crank, rods, main caps etc not the block. |

Throttle bodies look familiar and I suspect you'll find other parts will be too.............. On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:
Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:

They are made by AT Power, supplied by both SC & MED. Med have been using AT Power for their 7 Port for a few years. SC seem to have gone to a different supplier for their new 7 port TB's and SPI setup though. Not sure why.

I take your point with the head gasket but £120, surely you could get one made yourself for a lot less |

Instead, just make yourself a template so you can convert a BK450 to the K-stud spacing in a few minutes with a drill / dremel On 17th Nov, 2014 Tom Fenton said:

i see, makes sense. Anyone know what thickness the BK450? Also, seems too good to be true. I've always gone with expensive head gaskets and never had a problem, but for £100 saving, its perhaps worth the risk..... |

The most powerful & quickest proven K1100 motor on this site uses a BK450, so it's proven.

I totally agree!!! That should be the inspiration for any turbo mini owner asking if it's worth it....
