Hi, I brought a Mini last week and can't id the engine!!, the engine number is 12HD24 127110 So where did you bring the engine? If you brought it somewhere and cannot find it again, ID-ing can be very difficult. On 13th Jul, 2012 Ben H said:
Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

As far as I can see the only turbo part there is the plenum, it is not a turbo carb. It seems a strange setup to use to get a cold air feed to the carb. I know it has already been said but that's an MG Metro engine. |
