If you are putting a 16v engine in, try:

That website should have all the answers you need regarding the 16v 1.4

I voted...... and theres the full stops you missed.

Sounds like a lot of work really, guessing the 1.4 is a k series?

I think you're a little confused.

"running gear of the metro on the 1275" eh?

Basically what you are wanting to do is put a totally different engine and gearbox in your car. In this case, a K-series rather than the A-series. But the process is no different that if you wanted to fit a Vauxhall red-top or a Vtec.

It has been done plenty of times (and Denis one here has turbo'd his too). But it's not a simple swap. as suggested above, go to the 16v mini club website, there is a welth of info on what you need to do.
