Hi There,

Just popped in to say hello to you all.

Ive had a modded n/a 1380 Mini for some time now, but im looking to flog the motor and replace it with a turbo lump just for the hell of it.

So you might be seeing a little more of me around these parts now! So please be patient.

I will try to use the search facility before posting so please dont flame me if something has already been covered as it will be an accident *smiley*

Best Regards,

Mike

Hi,

Heres a picture as requested. The only thing ive done since the pic was taken was to add 4 x Cibie Oscars to the front, 2 up, 2 down. They have been coloured coded silver too.

I dont want to Turbo the 1380 as its a little smokey now. I dont think that the block has been offset bored so its effectively junk to anyone who wanted to rebore it.

Having said that, the 1380 runs fine and is really reliable. I just think that turbo would kill it!

Where would be the best place to discuss the spec of possible engine builds on this site?

Mike

Nice looking car. I suggest using the search button to help get an idea of a specification then ask questions in the beginners tech.

Yes its surprisingly tidy for a B Reg mini!

Ive had the underneath schutzed and apart from cleaning and painting its basically sound.
