K series head conversion Ditto, with nice 4 bold mains, fully worked crank, custom cams and a carefully selected turbo. Plus one of these new verto clutches people are making on here. On 7th Nov, 2008 Nic said:

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

No point in having a classic if you go down that route.

Well i would have said for free instead of 50 quid as i recently got given a K series engine :) 60k miles, weighs less than the A series, more power as standard, good fun to put in a mini i think. Far more cost effective than spending thousands of pounds on an engine that needs constant maintenance and a rebuild every ten minutes. On 19th Jan, 2010 wil_h said:
