Several innacuracies, and based on ideals from many years ago, but it might be useful to reference in some areas.

Those brace bars are bolted on the same as any other.

The way those are done is typical of miglia's etc as you need to run a front rad as the bar goes where the side rad should be located.

Mine are very similar but nothing like as beefy. The car was completed a lot later than that though so i guess they decided that such a big bar was unessecary.

is it correct in what they say about the 'beak' in the chambers on a standard head glowing red hot at 5psi or over causing detonation?

These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.

I designed some brace bars for mine similar to these as there was too much flex from the standard items available. Mine are a lot beefier and allow the fitment of the ally side mounted rad. My set and these are the only two examples of this type I have seen. Mine are made from 2" diamiter tube 3mm wall thickness.

i've not seen Mike in many years, he used to go to the london and surrey mini owners club meetings, then probably the last time i saw him was at one of the first few avon parks.
