HIFF44 ---> HIF44 TURBO?
Turbo Mini Forums

Is it possible to rebuild my HIF44, to a Turbo carb HIF44?, because i cannot find one second hand and avonbar asks a lot of money, it would cost me 450 euros

the search button ^^^ should reveal the answer to this

i have searched and i found a topic about the HIFF44 rebuild to turbo carb, but i have a problem understanding what i have to do, because i'm from belgium and i do not understand everything hes saying. So is it possible somebody explain me a bit more easier how to convert them? thanks the kif is the later carb used on the post 90 rover's carb k series, it seem to be difficult to adapt on a mini, as his inlet is very different and uncommun it is also a more complicated carb,
as Dave said any hif can be converted easily, seal the dashpot face with engine sealant, reverse the butterfly seals , don't forget to use a stronger spring and the good needle, about the leaning device system you shouldn't bother with this as it's better without, I also like to pressurise the fuell using the vapors pipe, because it give a better signal to the carb.
