Hi.
As the arrival of our mini is imminent, I thought it was worth putting up a wanted post.

Here's what I need:

Good 1275 metro lump - non turbo, non MG
Fuel Regulator

I think that's it for now... Im sure Iain will tell me otherwise if I'm wrong!

Any engine shop will be able to press in and ream new small end bushes for you for maybe a fiver a rod I would guess, its a dead easy job you just really need a press and a reamer.

I've got cooper S discs, cheers though.

I'll talk to the mrs about the engine + box mate, but that sounds like a good deal :)

Just spoke to simon at morspeed (top bloke!) - he says that its unlikely to be the small ends, and that its most likely to be the big ends? - what made you think it was the small ends?
Cheers!
